No, this is not universally true. *I've flown airplanes where this is

Hi Michael,

Here's my understanding : If the yoke gives force feedback of the out
of trim condition (you hold attitude and then trim) then if you turn
the trim the wrong while then holding attitude yoke pressure will
increase -as Tina says. If it doesn't then you are not holding
attitude OR the stick is not connected directly to the elevator
surface (e.g. elevator is hydraulic or trim surface powered). I know
the latter is the case for big planes (where elevator forces are too
large for one armed man power) but what light piston single are you
thinking about?
