Electric trim
I have a 1968 PA32-260 which has a PET-1 electric trim. It works well. I
am ready to get rid of the bow-tie yokes in favor of new PMA'd yokes from Avion or refurbished yokes from Wentworth. My problem is the trim switch. The design of the current switch will not fit a ram's horn style yoke. Electric trim switches are available; both new and used for Pipers, but I am not able to ascertain if they will work, let alone be legal. How do I got about finding if the old PET-! trim switch can legally be replaced by a new Piper trim switch? Wher can I look online for this info? Thanks in advance -- Bruce McFadden Birmingham, AL PA32-260 N5594J Patrick Henry --"Those that beat their swords into plowshares will do the plowing for those that don't!! |

If the answer can't be found on "Cherokee Chat" -- there is no answer. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
