I've had a rather annoying error occurring with some of my planes, mostly those of the Tri-jet variety. When I choose the aircraft in the selection screen, The aircraft is displayed with both of the tail-mounted horizontal stabilizers angled upwards at about 35 degrees:

While this error is not displayed after starting the simulation, it seems to prevent the plane from getting off the ground normally. This particular plane had to get to 250 KIAS before leaving the ground.

How do I correct this?

It's definately something with your trim. Try setting the default flight when you start to the Cessna at Meigs with no autopilot or anything on. If that doesnt work try starting a flight anyway and then if its still like that, check the trim
