Rudder Trim Tab Surface

[WB_FlashOver]

Hello, I'm looking to see if it is just my install or maybe an oversight in the model. When I apply rudder trim in the B-17 the trim wheel spins the correct direction, i.e. wheel spins left (nose left), and the plane trims to the left but the visual model of the actual trim tab moves to the left. This is backwards from what it should move. It should move right to apply left trim. Or does it work differently on the 17 than other planes? Is anyone else seeing this or did my crew chief have a few too many suds during last maintenance?

Thanks
Roger

They'll come back and fix that just as soon as they get the Pitot tubes installed and working.

Meh... it's not a big deal. I just noticed it and I wish I hadn't. Now it bugs me Seems a little nit-picky maybe.

(pssst, and you are noticing how much attention tech is paying to this thread right? )

Well, thanks snuffy... I hadn't seen the thread on pitot tubes. Now I'll be looking at that too. It's just not good being anal about the little things
I can say that I still love my Fortress though.
