A complicating factor is that there are two types of mode control panels on the QF737 fleet from different manufacturers. The change to the CWS reversion only applied to one of the models and even then only to the aircraft that had had the update applied.
So some behave one way and some behave the other.
Yet CASA consider Fail Operational and Fail Passive almost like an entire new endorsement!
