Default RE: Trimming a new airplane

Your going to think I'm kidding, but the best way to set up a plane is having someone next to you while you go through the trim chart.
Hey Rob,
When is that LIMAC meeting LOL, You are totally right about the above. Your Pop pointed out that my plane was pulling in the downline, I probably would not have noticed it unitll he had me do a 45deg inverted downline and then I noticed how bad it was. I still haven't made any changes so I need to get on that and try again. But I hope I can get one of you guys to spot for me. I want to shift the CG a little more aft first though. Getting to cold and windy to fly. I haven't flown since Thanksgiving weekend.
