I've never flown a Piper with electric trim, but I find the manual trim
wheel between the seats very convenient. You don't have to lean forward to
work it like the manual trim in a Skyhawk (the only Cessna I've flown), and
it falls easily to hand without looking. The only problem I've had was when
I weighed 60 lb more and I had a similar-sized passenger in the right seat.
Then I found that it was a bit of a squeeze (that might have been
misunderstood) getting to it between our hips :-).


To quote my wife:

"You do tell your other passengers what you're doing wehen you reach
down there, right??!!"
