All the talk of trim, and maybe this has been discussed before, but afriend of mine has a Phantom U/Land their trim is a piece of alum. ( approx from memory) 4"x12" hinged atthe rear of one side horz. stab. Then an arm up activated by a flex cable like a lawnmower throttle) with a detent, to stay put, in the cockpit. Justa matter of slight adjustment with your wrist and fingers to take the weightoff the stick. Whole thing can't weigh 6 oz. aft.Or for looks on a Piet, before you cut longerons, fashion this same sizedsection out of the horz stab, that would hinge, with a cable on theunderside for looks. Shouldn't take much to "design" . If someone walkedby at a flyin, they would have to look hard to see it. Even so it wouldmake for great discussion.walt________________________________________________________________________________Date: Sat, 27 Nov 1999 16:48:51 -0800 (PST)
