Having said that, I'm amazed too at how many replies there have been to my question.
Thanks to all for that!
Once again, automation, aircraft type or moving/not moving thrust levers have nothing to do with my original concern.
I'm a fanatical advocate of tactile feedback, and that's why I despise Airbus.
Keep your hand on the thrust levers as much as possible, but please, NOT DURING THE FIRST 400FT!!!
Your hand there is dangerous, and that's why you HAVE to REMOVE it at V1!
Thank you,
