I understand that the B200 is certified under FAR 23. Paraphrasing FAR 23.677 it says essentially that the aircraft should have enough control authority to land in any trim position. The wording suggests they are primarily referring to elevator trim. Does anyone know if this is tested for rudder trim?

In a similar vein, I note that the ATSB report indicates did not consult Raytheon. If the ATSB is asserting that the B200 cannot be flown with full rudder trim, wouldn't it be worth an email to the manufacturer to see if they flight tested this condition????
