It is more than two years since I left aviation, and I may be wrong, but I understood that, to have spoilers deploy automatically on touchdown of either Boeing OR Airbus, the following were necessary:
1. "Spoilers" lever to "ARMED"
2. "Weight-on-wheels" (squat) switch made
3. Both power levers at "Ground Idle" position
Spoilers will then deploy automatically, or have I got it wrong?
Kind regards,
