Some good ideas in the last few days.  I love this forum!  Scott Krueger 
points out the latent disaster in omitting a pump relay breaker, so I guess 
I'll have to put that in.  Though in point of fact, powering the relays from 
the 50 amp breaker, with a smaller breaker (or an in-line fuse) between the 
50 amp breaker and the relays (to enable little wires to the relays), is the 
nugget I extracted from his ideas.  This secondary breaker (or fuse) need not 
be on the panel.

Several others have pointed out interesting ideas for aircraft in which a 
runaway trim is catastrophic, but the question remains....

Can control be maintained in a 320/360 with full nose-up or nose-down trim?

It may be an academic question at this point, as powering the relays off the 
50 amp breaker (and fusing those wires) gives me the panel space I need to 
include a trim system circuit breaker.
