Hours? As if hours count for anything; after 1200+ hours on autothrust equipped MRJTs and 4200+ (and counting) on the ones with autothrottle, I have no preference for either. Both have their quirks one just needs acquaint oneself with in order to have happy operational life. Still I maintain any kind of automatic thrust/power control is better than none (5000+ hrs, if you wonder).
