I'm sure this will be deleted, as a Not-A-Pilot, but ... Oversimplifying, I know, but what about a bloody great button on the coaming that disconnects all the automatics and resets all trim to neutral, and reverts to manual throttles ... and let the pilot fly the bloody thing manually? Or aren’t some Captains able to do that any more?
