Was just about to fab the elevator control horns for my 235 but could not
locate the 1"x2"x0.125" AL angle in any of my boxes.  The plans don't have
the material callout 6061-T6 vs 2024-T3 but the elevator "U" channel appears
to be 6061.  Is 6061 the correct alloy for these control horns or is the
higher strength of 2024 needed here?

Thanks for any help.
