Let's say this "friend" is pulling his hair out because I - uh, *he* cannot trim his plane out to straight and level flight without some control input. With the wings held level by the stick in straight and level flight the plane wants to go into a skidding left turn. To keep the plane on a straight course the stick either has to be deflected to the right or right rudder/left stick must be held. There is already a trim tab on the rudder. Should I just keep enlarging it? Any other ideas? Thanks. -- Scott VanArtsdalen RV-4 N311SV, FLYING!!
