CAUTION: The Flap/Trim Compensation Unit is disabled on the ground
through an airspeed switch. The airspeed switch activates the Flap/
Trim Compensation Unit above approximately 35 knots. If the airplane is
positioned into winds in excess of approximately 35 knots while the aps
are being set for takeoff, the trim will move from its previously set position
and could result in an out-of-trim condition on takeoff.
