THS moves on its own?

Featured Replies

Dear All,Have any one experienced hearing the sound of the THS trim wheel rolling on its own during final approach, after the autopilot and autothrottle disconnected?Any explanation?

It is called speed trim, it is a feature of the real plane.

Really!!... With no autopilot nor autothrottle!!... Never heard of it. Will look it up then.

The speed trim is only avaiable with NO autopilot, when autopilot is engaged the function is made by the AP itself.

What exactly does this function do?

It automatically trims the aircraft at low speed or with flaps and gear up, and no pilots commanded the trim for at least 10 seconds.
