Can a Boeing driver educate me about the low altitude level off auto-throttle issue? I have just seen a yootoobe video describing in a little detail that this is a problem on many Boeings, and may have been a contributary factor in the Air Ethiopia crash as the rapid acceleration caused by a continued high N1 at level off would lead to a wildly out of trim situation.

The main point of the video was that IF this was a factor, then the problem is MUCH MUCH bigger for boeing than just MCAS.

Thoughts?

Cheers, Marly.
