Pilots are being trained in a yoyo maneuver that allows trim authority to be recovered but it’s pretty hard to fly.
yes....there’s some bandaid augmentation system, but it’s still a handful. Especially during a go around. I’m not the ace of the base, but a 737 does have some serious pitch up tendencies when you rapidly apply thrust while hand flying.
