ELEVATOR TRIM

Post by buchanan »

I need the degree deflection for the elevator trim. Mine is a 1955 B. I have a '63 to '68 Series 100 Service Manual and it calls out for the 172, UP 28 +1 -0 and DOWN 13 +1 -0. My IA is on vacation for a couple more weeks so I can't query him.

Thanks in advance and best regards, Buck

This information is found in the TSDS.

Up 12 Deg, Down 25 deg for the B model elevator trim.
CAUTION - My forum posts may be worth what you paid for them!
