Thought i would share with you todays experience. During an event flying and after a rolling circle i felt something wrong with my pitch controll something that was not right. I could not move stick towards my belly. I paused a bit and tried to look back on my horisontal stab but got me no info. Asked him up front if harness was jamming the stick. It was not. Then i saw the reason. Aux fuel knob was gone. Auch... fun is over and head back. Briefed pax to embrase his face during landing. Normal flight in cruise, slowed down to see how much pitch angel i could get realising the knob was really jamming it good. Made a flat approach struggling with midday breeze 90 off runway 12 kts or more adding to the challenge. Well i am here to tell but dont like to land a pitts unstalled... it all went well with a couple of bounces. ..
