Hey!
Is there anybody who can inform how I can check the trims at the end of the cockpit preparation list?...
I cannot find a handle nor a switch or whatever to check at the end of the cockpit preparation procedure the trims and hence get an OK.

Hey! Radarman,
This helped me completely! Many thanks for your assistence.

This is a very good video, from start to push back and start of engines.
Is there a following video, which shows also the other procedures built in in the Scheffel B737? I would love to see those as well.
Anyhow, many thanks again!
