As long as the Flap Cable question has come up, as related to these potential accidents, I would like to ask the following question to those pilots/mechanics who are familiar with the whole flap system in the 337, as follows: If a flap cable breaks, is the "other flap" usable? I.e can it be set to correspond to the "broken cable position" of the jammed flap? Granted you wouldn't have a lot of time, but if we knew the answer, we could perhaps develop a "rule of thumb" protocol.

I seem to recall on my Navajo, that if one side went, you were essentially screwed. Is this the same on our Skytrucks?
