I am also a bit addicted to the trim wheel.

I ve perfected it to the point where i can notice / move the trim wheel 1/10ths of an inch lol. the slightest 10 fpm, slight nose up or down adn that trim wheel moves .1 to.2 inches to compensate lol. keeps me busy on long cross countries, along with checkpoint spotting and airspace scans.

Also while on topic, I use the carb heat for power off stalls and for engine out sims.

10/10.... Smiley...!

A correctly trimmed Aircraft is a fast, slippery, economical, aircraft.

Once you can take your hands off the Joystick/Yoke and maintain a constant height, you know that you have got your Bird correctly trimmed.... Smiley....!

Each change in Power will require a slight re-Trim, particularly when coming in to land on reduced Throttle, (requires a slight "nose-up" Trim attitude to reduce air speed).

Endless fun in the Cessna/Piper Trainers, and all adds to your flying skills....for real...and in the Sim...!

Paul...G-BPLF... Cool...!
