Hurricane, its the bottom right dial on the main panel, and its the needle that points vertical. Vertical is no slip, left and right= slip.
Corsair, its in the centre bottom of the main panel, and its a ball in a tube which is curved like a smile, ball in centre = no slip.
With a well trimmed plane, you will fly a faster, and actually don't need as high power settings, as if you are not trimmed.
you can also use your climb indicators to check you are trimmed out level as well.
You can actually practise flying a plane with just trim, if you go in the qmb, with no enemy, its possible to turn and climb and descend just with elevator and rudder trim, without even having to use your stick.
