Takeoff trim and allowable range

Set manifest trim

Load a chosen variant with a known EFB manifest and show the EICAS trim indication. ^[14]

Set pitch trim to the manifest TRM and compare the number with the takeoff band.

Target value and band

Read the actual digital trim value, not just the position of the pointer within the green region.

FSS identifies TRM as the takeoff trim and the green region as the allowable band; the calculated value remains the target.

Trim inputs

Check the aircraft variant, flap, loading, CG and any trim bindings.
