The Cirrus has an electric trim. I find it's all but impossible to get
fine enough control to really get the thing trimmed up properly at high
speed; it's just too twitchy. But the Cirrus also has an autopilot,
which more than makes up for the twitchy trim.


Thanks; a reply that I can use. ;^)

So the auto makes it possible. What if the auto was not working, or you
just needed (or wanted) the stick time? Would it be reasonable to fly 2
hours without your hand getting overly tired?


Well, I'm just heading out to the airport now. I'll let you know in
about three hours :-)
