Trimming a B200 for proper flare, what if you GA?

[BE200Driver]

Manual trim all the way. Electric is good for the taxi checks.

I find with the 4 bladed props that once i have the runway made i will walk the levers back to 200lbs a side. Much less and you'll know you arrived. I will make small corrections quickly with the wiz wheel and right back to the levers. A real no brainer once you've done it a few hundered times, lol.

Yup, walking them back does wonders. What will also do wonders, is when you are able to feel the props coming out of governor. This keeps you from doing the last minute fishtail on the centerline when one comes out before the other. Learned that one the hard way.....

Manual trim is preferred, and I use it with a Captain who is an MEI (I can fly from the left-hand seat). But it's a stretch from the right with so much else going on, even when you're 6'1".

Thanks for all the info ... much appreciated.
