L-1011 Autoflight: Proportional Pitch Trim (22-19)

Proportional pitch trim is active during control wheel steering operation but only while pressure is being applied to the control wheel. When pressure is released, the auto trim will operate. It is not necessary to use the trim but it more closely approximates the feel of the manual airplane.

Proportional pitch trim is also active on the ground when control wheel steering is selected and a pressure of four pounds is applied to the control wheel while trimming.
