Elevator Trim

[sonny junell]

Just got off the phone with "Gus" over at Van's. I was enquiering about my elvator trim tab. The Trim tab(s) do not move in unison like conventional airplanes, as many of you have discovered. Vans say this trim tab is supposed to work that way. So that you have full nose up atthority "tab down" and limited nose down atthourity i.e. high speed fligh. This is very strange however, this is supposedly the way they designed it. Just passing this along to any one who spends 7 hours of there day off pulling the D*A*M*N* thing in and out of the empnage
