The problem Brendon experienced with one of the Velocity AC was that the
exhaust broke and the resulting flame melted the covering on the aileron
cables. The result was that the coverings then seized on the cables,
effectively leaving him with no aileron movement. 

His solution was to move the aileron controls to neutral and then to fly
and land with rudders alone.

 >>>huh? I thought that's how everyone landed anyhow?  :-)
