Throw it straight to 45 degrees AOB, squeeze on 2-3% more than you had S&L and then adjust.

Be ready for the "BANK ANGLE!" nagging from the spook in the wardrobe, but it should only shout once as you shoot through the limit.

Anticipate the rollout by the same compass degrees as aob and it should all line up as you reset the N1s.

When overloaded later in the course, revert to HDG and LEVEL CHANGE modes until your PM reassembles the automatics, it flies like a real aeroplane rather than a myster X-box game.

Good luck and hope you manage to enjoy some of it!

PS. Personally I would not trim. Adjust your seat so's you can rest your forearms on your thighs and use wrist action to control the pitch. But then I'm a product of RAF Central Flying Skule, and what would they know.........?
