	This is an old obsolete concern that I wrote about to you and the group
Oct. 04, '97, and then again mentioned to the group Oct. 24, '97, May
03, '98, and Aug. 27, '99, so should be in the archive's.  I helped Todd
Morgan come up with an extremely simple answer to this issue.  The
following is part of my old post:

	"The electric trim system in Todd Morgan's '95 Oshkosh Grand Champion
Cozy III is connected into the original mechanical trim system and is
easily disconnected via a pit pin by the pilots leg if the electric
actuator fails, or you've lost all electrical power (both the alternator
and battery).  He, also, won the Stan Ditzke Award for Safety that year
at Oshkosh with this system electrically connected to our Stick Grips."
