control surfaces is the position in which they are aligned with the

What's the neutral position of a Cub or Cessna 180?

I don't know. I've never flown anything that tiny.

The correct placement of the period in that last sentence is after

Nor that big, either, for that matter!

But *YOU* have never flown *ANYTHING* at all -- only a low-fidelity
electronic version of the above aircraft!

I stand by my original post: "You haven't flown anything even as big as
a Cub, because you haven't flown anything!

As I've said, I've flown primarily a Baron 58 and a 737-800. I've
occasionally flown a Beechcraft A36 as well. I like the twin, though.
