Trouble is once you've been exposed to 600C temperature there's not much left to put "Some cream on it".
A software device that alters the trim during flight transition from one stage to another, possibly without notifying the aircrew - unbelievable. Why haven't aircrew, en masse, especially seniors, raised objections to this ?
