Salute!

Thank you Takwis

Why change from individual cutouts for manual and autoplot trim?
I was wondering the same thing since last November. Ditto for disabling the column switches if I really wanted to pull back hard so I could override HAL. You know, "I flew this thing for 30 years, and pulling back hard tiurned off the trims except the switches on my yoke"

My point is something lurks in the myriad of boxes, add-ons, etc that requires I turn off my manual trim switch power. I unnerstan that a roque "stuck" switch contact could be a problem, but if I have successfully beeped the switch over twenty times to get nose up trim, then I don't think that sucker is the problem.
