Does pulling back on the throttles disengage autothrottle? Is there an announciation when TOGA selected. If yes - visual and/or aural? If throttles are pulled back does TOGA pitch up cancel?
I guess what I’m getting at is how quickly would the thrust and climb be recognized as an inadvertent activation of TOGA.
The possible delay between possible switch activation and flaps 1 being configured and the resultant TOGA would make it hard to figure out immediately.
