1. Does MCAS require a fully clean wing or just flaps at 0? (i.e. Slats still extended).
2. Does the 738/Max have auto flap retract á la Airbus - on the Bus the flaps auto retract as speed increases (for protection).
3. Are the auto trim on/off switches guarded?
4. What state is the Auto throttle in after take off? Does it have to manually activated at thrust reduction altitude?
5. If the throttle levers are left untouched after take off, with a distraction (UAS) would thrust remain at take off thrust setting?
