Can't discount the possibility of external gust locks however.
From the POH:
The aileron and stabilator controls should be secured by looping the safety belt through the control wheel and pulling it snug. The rudder is held in position by its connections to the nose wheel steering and normally does not have to be secured. The flaps are locked when in the full up position and should be left retracted
There is no aileron trim..
