In the event of conflicting aileron or elevator trim inputs, which cockpit's input will take priority?

In the scenario where there are conflicting aileron or elevator trim inputs from both the front and rear cockpit, the input from the rear cockpit takes priority. This is typically a design choice in aircraft to ensure that in dual-control situations, the rear cockpit (often associated with a flight instructor or a more experienced pilot) will have authority over certain controls. This prioritization helps to maintain safety and control consistency during training operations or situations where an instructor or a supervisory pilot is present.

Understanding this priority is crucial for effective coordination in a dual-control environment, as the pilot in the rear cockpit usually has the responsibility of managing the aircraft's flight dynamics in case of discrepancies.
