Allan, etc.
Steve Dunsmuir and my local guru didn't have to go up into the fuse joining
rebate to get the required 12-13 degrees of movement. Don't cut up into there
until we can find out why others have different geometry!! I think the botom
line is in the trim system as the datums of "centre of rotation" (centre of
torque tube) and trim tab hinge point are fairly rigid datums. Therefore the
ideal slot size from Europa can't be "that wrong". The bulkhead distance aft at
1 1/4" as I recall was also not hard to set up, so the problem must be
elsewhere. Any takers????

P.S. I know that 1 1/4" mightn't be right, but a short walk to the manual will
clarify, and whatever it said is where mine is at.
