Airbus Question

An aircraft that has no trim?? is there any such thing??? Airbuses DO have trim only not in the same sense as Boeings etc do. I believe it's automatic trim in the A320/A330/A340-i.e you select the attitude you want with the sidestick and the trim wheel moves automatically to trim it to that position, i don't think the pilots themselves touch the trim wheel though. Anyone feel free to correct me if i'm wrong

The buses do have a trim, but when flying normally, i.e. all flight control computers working ok, it is not manipulated by the pilot. The computers operate such that in a normal regime, the sidestick input is a G command, and the trim control is moved by the PC`s. Imagine flying, and having the guy in the other seat trimming for you (and doing it perfectly)

Thank You very much guys for this answer.
Someone brought the subject up and I said all airplanes have trim and that it wouldn't suprise about Airbus. I know nothing about airbus so that is why I asked the pros.. At Cathay.
Thanks,
