Once take-off trim is set, the system makes no further trim inputs until the aircraft
accelerates to at least 80 KIAS and there is no weight on the wheels.
GUST LOCK
A gust lock system is provided in the front cockpit to lock the aileron and rudder
surfaces in the neutral position, and the elevator in a nose-down configuration
when the aircraft is parked. A spring-loaded yoke on the centre console is lifted,
the control stick is positioned so that the gust lock yoke can engage an adapter on
the control stick, and the yoke is lowered to the lock position on the column. A
flexible cable, connected to a latch assembly which locks the rudder cable, is
attached to the lever. The gust lock is disengaged by lifting the yoke, moving the
control stick to the side and then aft, and lowering the yoke to the stowed position.
