Hey everyone! Relatively new Arrow owner here. I have a 1976 Arrow 2. I’m concerned about my trim indexing and was curious as to others experience. With the trim needle at the N setting for takeoff it’s nearly a two handed operation to “unstick” the plane and rotate. I have tons of time in PA 28s of all flavors and while I remember having to positively rotate on takeoff, this just seems like a lot.

In cruise, trim is way forward. In a descent not long ago it was all the way to the stop forward. That just doesn’t seem right.

I don’t know how much of a difference it makes but I have a LoPresti cowl, gap seals and every other speed mod on the wings.

Thanks for any input!
