Thanks for the reply, unfortunately I don t really understand the answer. I understand that the pitch attitude is taken at 50 ft and then used as the basis of the trim down notion.

But this trim can’t be from the THS as it’s is frozen. So where does the “trim” come from? I can only assume that it’s from the Elevators. In which case, do the ELACS/ SECs command the pitch down motion that then requires a counter active pitch up input on the side stick so that the sum movement of the aircraft remains at zero. (Much as in the same way that the side stick inputs are summed in a “DUAL INPUT” scenario but in FLARE mode, the ELACs/SECs are behaving as if they are a second side stick pitching down)

I hope that explains my confusion
