The takeoff mistrim warning horn will sound when thrust levers are advanced to takeoff position if the pitch trim is not in the takeoff range.

• A. False
• B. Sometimes
• C. Not applicable
• D. True

Answer: (D)

The main idea is that the aircraft uses a takeoff mistrim warning to ensure the pitch trim is correct before liftoff. When you push the thrust levers to takeoff position, the system checks the pitch trim position. If the trim is not within the designated takeoff range, a warning horn sounds to alert you to adjust the trim. This helps ensure a stable rotation and safe liftoff, preventing an improper pitch moment that could lead to an unstable takeoff or tail strike. If the trim is already within the takeoff range, the horn won’t sound and you can proceed once other takeoff conditions are met.
