Yes. We teach PAAT while accelerating or decelerating: progressively adjust
the attitude and trim to maintain the aircraft level. I can hardly believe
that I am writing about this: it's my work :-)
In Cessnas and other little ac you have to re-trim for power, attitude or speed
changes. I don't know about Cessnas (I've never been in one :-() but the Grob
115 has only elevator trim, controllable from the cockpit. The aileron and
rudder trims have to be set on the ground.
