I've read most of the old out of trim threads,but I want some fresh thoughts on this.
A friend called me this AM and told me he was running out of nose down trim. After talking with him for quite a while I told him to check his rigging to see if that was off. Along with everything else you would normally check for this.
Then after thinking about this for a couple of hours I got kind of worried. The part that has me worried is he told me when he let go of the stick the plane would slowly pitch up then after a few moments would really pitch up and would stall if left alone. Also this doesn't happen with 2 people in the plane.
I'm out on a fire and can't get there to look at the plane. What do you folks think.
thanks.....Mike
