I have two trim swithes: one is in the stick (full speed)
and other one is on the panel (adjustable speed).
I use stick switch when landing (low air speed - faster trim speed)
and panel switch during cruise (fast air speed - slower trim speed).
I have a changeover switch to select which mode to use.
If one switch would go broken, I have still other one left over to trim.
Trim CB is near panel switch just in case to stop possible autotrim.
