Narrative:Flight 82 suffered a partial flight control malfunction during takeoff from Fairbanks. An excessive amount of aft control yoke pressure was needed to lift off the nose. Elevator control also felt 'sluggish' as the crew declared an in-flight emergency and landed at Anchorage.
Fairbanks International Airport weather observation at the time of the incident consisted of: Sky conditions and ceiling, 400 feet broken, 2,000 feet overcast; visibility, 1/2 statute mile; wind, calm; temperature, minus 47 degrees F (-44deg C).
PROBABLE CAUSE: "The restricted/delayed movement of the elevator flight control due to extremely cold weather conditions."
