Re: Finding Neutral Elevator Trim

Post by GAHorn »

place the trim tab in the neutral position on the elevator, and the trim wheel is in the neutral
position.
this does not equate to neutral trim (because of loading differences), but it its where your trim
for takeoff should indicate. be sure to confirm your tab moves the full amount up/down specified
in the owners manual.
