Question 21-8
Given a conventional transport aeroplane with irreversible flight controls on ground with engines running which of these statements about rudder trim actuation correct The rudder moves rudder pedals move in corresponding direction. The information that engines are running important since it means that hydraulic or electric actuators on control surface are operating concerning rudder on ground if wind (or an airport equipment) moves rudder (the control surface located on vertical stabilizer) pilot will feel this motion on rudder pedals concerning rudder trim now trim system will move control surface but also rudder pedals in order to be aware of actual position of control surface not only on ground but also in flight.
