Aircraft Technical Manual
JTM001-5
The control clearance is less than 3mm at the control's point of overlap when tested as detailed
-
in Inspection B. Note that this clearance limit only applies to controls which are configured such
that they actually have a point of overlap.
-
The control clearance changes by 5mm or more when the test load of Inspection B is applied.
This is irrespective of if the control has a point of overlap or not.
Carry on to Inspection C in all cases.
