Alf. Why would you need two hands on the control wheel. A practice fraught with danger. Even with an active or inactive auto throttle there is only one place for the second hand, unless operating some other AFCS switch or knob, On the bloody thrust lever.

In the OEI situation, the retarded thrust lever makes a good rest for your wrist or hand while your fingers guard the live thrust lever. Unless you have infant sized hands.
