## Discrepancy

ELEVATOR JAMMED ON TAKEOFF, COULD NOT PULL YOKE BACK TO ROTATE.  VOR 2 INDICATOR CASE DROPPED ONTO THE CONTROL YOKE PREVENTING FULL REARWARD TRAVEL.  TAKEOFF WAS ABORTED WITH NO FURTHER INCIDENT.  FOUND VOR INDICATOR BACK CASE SEPARATED FROM FRONT OF INDICATOR, WHICH WAS STILL PROPERLY INSTALLED INTO THE INSTRUMENT PANEL.  REPLACED VOR 2 INDICATOR & INSPECTED ELEVATOR SYS FOR FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT.
