## Discrepancy

SEA - FLIGHT 2019 - ON ROTATION, THE ELEVATOR BACK PRESSURE WAS EXCESSIVELY HEAVY.  ALL OTHER CONTROLS WERE NORMAL.  MAINTENANCE INSPECTED THE AIRCRAFT RE-RIGGED THE RIGHT ELEVATOR CONTROL SURFACE AND THE LEFT AND RIGHT ELEVATOR SPRING TABS.  OPERATIONAL CHECKS WERE GOOD AND THE AIRCRAFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE.
