Dual Trim Switches?

I'm going to the "Wings over Houston" Air Show at Ellington this week
end. Besides getting some cockpit time in the P-40 and P-51, I'll talk
to some of the current Heavy Iron drivers, with birds on display,
about what the trim is on the birds newer than I flew. From past shows
expect to see at least the F-15, F-16, F-117 and also Navy jets, Blue
Angels, etc. Probably some Chinese Migs that were kept at Ellington.
Its 62 years since I flew the P-40 and 58 years since I flew the P-51
so need the cockpit time to refresh where all the controls, etc.,
were/are )
Have fun!
Ask 'em if they have any LeBlond valve springs while you're there.
