Landing Without Elevator Control
The pitch trim spring cartridge is attached directly to the elevator and
provides a backup should you lose the primary elevator control
system. Set elevator trim for a 80 KIAS approach to landing.
Thereafter, do not change the trim setting until in the landing flare.
During the flare, the nose-down moment resulting from a power
reduction may cause the airplane to hit on the nosewheel. At
touchdown, bring the power lever to idle.
