I have a hard time believing the story about the DC-10, but it does make a
difference in a Cessna 182.  If the pilot trims the plane for the desires attitude and someone changes position, I've had the pilot comment about the
need to re-trim.  This is especially noticable with the person all the way back in the cabin if they change from back against the wall (facing forward) to feet
against the wall (facing backwards).
