A question or two.

If you "reset" the trim switches, I take it that the pitch trim would then have to be manually adjusted for the remainder of the flight?

If the MCAS activates for a few second and the PF pulls back on the control column I understand that the pitch trim stays where it is, so a second activation a few second later would have an even more aggressive effect.

Does the MCAS have any effect on the thrust?

After the MCAS is countered by the PF could the autopilot be activated before MCAS activates again?

Could the Autopilot be activated in the gaps between the MCAS "working"?
