The 777 flight control system is excellent. It flies like a large, more stable 737. Trimming is natural and intuitive and exactly like flying a non-few aircraft. It also keeps you in practice for the two reversionary modes, where manual trim is required. It also means the handling characteristics in reversionary modes are very similar to normal mode and require less capacity in a non-normal situation. C* U is excellent - Boeing certainly as Denti says looked hard and learned lessons from the Airbus approach.
