What is the position of the elevator in relation to the trimmable horizontal stabiliser of a power assisted aeroplane that is in trim?
Domanda 231, Principles of Flight - ATPL - Airline Transport Pilot license
| The elevator deflection (compared to the stabilizer position) is always zero. |
| At a forward CG the elevator is deflected upward and at an aft CG the elevator is deflected downward. |
| The position depends on speed, the position of slats and flaps and the position of the centre of gravity. |
| The elevator is always deflected slightly downwards in order to have sufficient remaining flare capability. |
