the conclusion that the trim position is from the actual positioning of the rudder trim actuator postion. Even if the cable broke it would have had to be itn that postion. It the smoking gun. If the aircraft didnt end up in the position it was ie oppsite to the rudder trim position that it was in you may have arguments about what happened. The elephant is still in the room.
Thanks Connedrod, can I lean on your 30 years?

Will the rudder trim wheel move and the trim tab not move if the cable is broken aft of the stops?

Is there an indication from the cockpit that this may have occurred?

Looking at the schematic/ stop positions, the rudder trim wheel would work correctly if a failure had occurred aft of the stops?

Thanks.
