Saw Trap E in a 3" a few years back. No luck yet with F. 4" should show it with reasonable confidence cf. Colin's post. As a side note, I looked at the Trapezium through an f/13 Telementor under continental seeing while in Europe over the holidays, and while I did not see E or F, the view of the asterism was the cleanest I've ever had (the nebula wasn't bad either). Spending most of my time under this coastal seeing that was a stunning sight.
Will try Trap G & beyond with the 8" when time permits. Nice challenge thanks.
Edit: Maybe not G then (just read John's post below)...
