  1. when you use pitch trim with the electric switches, does the yoke move to the center as you're using the switches? why do pilots apply stabilizer trim in small increments?

  2. Xav,

    Yes the yoke does move, but it is barely perceptible because, as you mentioned we use it in small increments. Now for the why. Pitch trim should be used to relieve pressure on the yoke, so short engagements of the pitch trim motors will give you a better feel of control pressure changes. Longer engagements may find you trimming thru where you should be and into the opposite effect. Also, trimming during flap retraction while the wing is reconfiguring from low speed mode to high speed mode can lead to over correction and trimming back towards where you were in the first place. Again, short bursts of these motors will help avoid this.

  3. when would you use aileron trim? would you first level out the wings with the yoke and then apply trim, or would you just apply trim until the wings are level?
