There is no manual trim wheel on this type either.

It's happened to me that both pitch trim channels failed at cruise speed and we were left with an uncomfortably out-of-trim airplane as we slowed for approach.

I can only imagine if a HS runaway were not disconnected early via disconnect switches or CB, what the elevator forces would be with no manual trim reversion to correct the problem.
