'The control lock bar is mounted under the panel in the front cockpit.  In the rear cockpit, there is a “T” handle with cable, fairleads and pulleys that is connected to release the lock mounted on the right side under the instrument panel.  Mike DenestFrom: fairchildclub@yahoogroups.com [mailto:fairchildclub@yahoogroups.com]

Subject: [fairchildclub] Rear cockpit control lock assy?   
Do all PTs have a rear cockpit control lock?
 
The reason I ask is with the 10 Sept. 1944 revision of the IPB, all references to it have been removed.  My project doesn't have one, so I was wondering if other projects or flying aircraft have one.  I can't find a Service Bulletin specifying its removal.  Shown on Figure 107, page 127, with text on page 161.'
