While inspection the rudder cables, looking aft behind the seat back, I notice the cables lay lightly against the diagonal fuselage support that start behind the top of the seat back and angles down. The cables only have about 150 hours on them and look like new but is this correct? I have the three fairleads from the rudder pedals back to the seat area, then there is only one more towards the tail section but nothing along the diagonal support. The cables have rubbed the paint slightly and you can see the green primer. It certainly seems there should be a another fairlead between the third and forth working aft but the plans don't show one. Any ideals or thoughts?
