Question 20-39 : Reduce or to cancel control forces trim the aeroplane during normal flight trim the aeroplane at low airspeed lower manoeuvring control forces

A trim tab is a small adjustable hinged surface on the trailing edge of the aileron rudder or elevator control surfaces trim tabs are labour saving devices that enable the pilot to release manual pressure on the primary controls. 845.some airplanes have trim tabs on all three control surfaces that are adjustable from the cockpit others have them only on the elevator and rudder and some have them only on the elevator some trim tabs are the ground adjustable type only.the tab is moved in the direction opposite that of the primary control surface to relieve pressure on the control wheel or rudder control for example consider the situation in which we wish to adjust the elevator trim for level flight 'level flight' is the attitude of the airplane that will maintain a constant altitude assume that back pressure is required on the control wheel to maintain level flight and that we wish to adjust the elevator trim tab to relieve this pressure since we are holding back pressure the elevator will be in the 'up' position the trim tab must then be adjusted downward so that the airflow striking the tab will hold the elevators in the desired position conversely if forward pressure is being held the elevators will be in the down position so the tab must be moved upward to relieve this pressure in this example we are talking about the tab itself and not the cockpit control. 846.rudder and aileron trim tabs operate on the same principle as the elevator trim tab to relieve pressure on the rudder pedals and sideward pressure on the control wheel respectively exemple 272 reduce or to cancel control forces.reduce or to cancel control forces.
