O.K. group... got a question about the trim systems in our 'Coupes: I
presently have the original panel crank trim system in my plane (C
model). I know that in order to convert it to a "D" or later model, you
have to put the "trim tab" system in (which requires me to change the
elevator.. UGH!!). I wish to keep it a "C" model. My question is: If I
am putting the "O-200" STC in
my C-85, would I have to install this "updated" trim system or can I
stick with my panel crank one?? I've kind of went over the memorandums
and such and can't come out with any clear answer. Am I missing
something?? I am partial to the crank because I have had trouble (with
other 'Coupes that I have owned) with the trim wire binding and
breaking. The crank has always been nice to me. Someone help me out
please. Happy New Year!!
