How do you trim without relying on sensations?

You've said multiple times that sensations tell you when something is
happening, and that you look at instruments when you feel sensations.
You are
relying on sensations.


In the PC sim the trim is just like another elevator. You hold the yoke in
the position for level flight, trim in the appropriate direction, then move
the yoke to the new position for level flight, rinse and repeat.

It's just like flying, only different. :)

We trim by holding the yoke, and adjust trim to reduce perceived
pressure. That is very much a sensation and the use of sensation to
fly the airplane correctly.

The point being, we are using sensation to correctly fly an airplane
in actual IMC, or VFR, or whatever.


Anyone who asserts we do not use those kinds of sensations are not
appropriate is incorrect.
