September 3, 200718 yr Hi,A question about the Stab Trim in the 747. I thought I, for the first time, should actually adjust the Stab Trim for takeoff too match the trim in FMC. The problem is that I can't find a way to do it.I was supposed to adjust the trim from 4 to 6 last night, even though I was already within the green band. I couln't find a way to do it. The manuals and guides that I read, told me to adjust the trim, but as far as I could see, none of them told me HOW I adjust the trim.I'm sure it is an obvious and easy way to do it, but HOW do you do it?:-) Regards,Raymond Raymond Bergseng ENGM ________________________________ Asus P6T WS Professional, Intel Core i7 980X 3.33GHz (OC to 3.8), Zalman CNPS9700 NT CPU cooler, 12 GB OCZ Platinum XTC DDR3 1600MHz, EVGA GeForce GTX 580 "Superclocked Edition" 797MHz 1536MB, M-Audio Fast Track Ultra external USB soundcard, WD VelociRaptor 300GB SATA discs, Cooler Master Stacker nVidia Edition w/850W PSU, Dell UltraSharp 24" LCD, Windows 7 Ultimate x64, Logitech Ultra X Premium Keyboard, MX 518, Saitek Yoke and Rudder.
September 3, 200718 yr Commercial Member Raymond,just use the standard elevator trim commands of FS9, that's all. Note however that you need hydraulic pressure to do this!Regards,Markus Markus Burkhard

September 6, 200718 yr Trim button is located on the control yoke, and there's always the trim wheel on the center console. Dan Downs KCRP
September 6, 200718 yr "and there's always the trim wheel on the center console."Trim SWITCHES (on the 744) ;)If you have programmable switches on the top of your joystick, it's a good idea to programme these in the FS menus for down/up ("elevator trim")Cheers.Q>
