Default Dual Trim Switches?

Help

I flew a 'Top Hat' four way trim switch for thousands of hours and
never saw a second one. Anyone know where it was located?

Our emergency procedure for run away trim was to pull the circuit
breaker(s).




Switches like that are illegal now. You have to have passive fail systems
on trims and autopiots nowadays.
