While doing a wheel landing the other day my golvebox came open. Surprise! The contorl stick would no longer move forward. Of course you can't really see the glovebox from the rear seat so I was stumped for a few moments while geting things under control. This lead to a lot of navel gazing - why did this happen, what if it had happened while up flying around, could jam the control through the cover, why didn't I see this before, what to do for a fix? I have attached photos that show the issue and my simple fix.
