Phooey

Now, if we can just keep the press away from aviation, we'd all be set. Has anyone here seen a Piper with a gust lock? No. Pipers lawyers, a long time ago, reasoned that the liability was too great.

Most Piper owners use the seat belt wrapped around the yoke as a gust lock, and there are some aftermarket gust locks, but Piper doesn't condone the use to the locks.

Chalk this story as a hoax. But, it does make a nice fairy tale.
