Looking for Flap Cables

In this particular case we were changing the cables on spec. It was a few years ago so I can't remember the exact details. If I recall correctly, I gave them a visual inspection and ran my finger over what I could access and didn't find any problem. Once the cables were removed we were quite surprised to see them as bad as they were.

When I did my skymaster it was pretty much the same thing. Although the cables weren't frayed as bad.
