Hello,

is there a way to display the Trim Elevation Settings in order to be able the exact lift to assign, same as the 777 in the FCTL page?

Hi,

The trim value is only displayed on the Stabilizer trim indicator on the control stand. But I don't think you really need to set it to the tenth of degrees.

On the 777, the setting is set to 0.25 increment.

Eyeball it. Good enough. Keep in mind that the the CG is calculated based on average weights of people. Every non-180 pound person will mean that value has error in in. Every bag not 40 pounds will add error to that value. So, even if you set the trim perfectly, according to the dispatch, it's still going to be wrong in actuality. Eyeball it and run with it. Adjust on the fly.
