Resetting the aileron trim manually

Featured Replies

Stupid question...

 

I know how to manually center and tell if the elevator and rudder are in zero position, but how do I do the same with the ailerons? I know where to adjust the trim for them, but there is no visual indicator.

FCOM Manual #2 section 9.10.8 - you will be surprised where the indicator is.

HAHA isn't it always the way. I spent 15 minutes yesterday tearing my house apart looking for my sunglasses. On my desk under my monitor the whole time. Where I had been sitting in front of for 3 hours I might add. Doh!

Yep, happens all the time! hehe

 

I do think its odd that Boeing would design the switches to be in the back of the center console and the gage on the yoke. Why not put the adjustment switches on the yoke too (let me guess, they probably are lol).

Makes more sense on real airplane when you can operate the switch and look at the yoke at the same time...

It is just easy and simple as it is, adding wires to the wheel will add only more weight and complexity.

In the simulator is a bit difficult, in the real one is pretty easy to use one hand for trimming and one for controlling the plane.
