"last week I had a nut fall off the elevator control linkage."
Gees, that can be a little hazardous to your health! Always make positive sure that all nuts and bolts are cotter pinned on rotating parts. I would think an annual inspection would catch that.
A friend of mine flew 100 miles without a safety ring on his wing clevis pin. I showed him that it wasn't there when looking over his plane one day and he turned white when I pointed it out.
