Please help me understand how an engine "accelerating [of its own accord] to climb power" has everything to do with the pilot
Eeerrm...there is just a slightest of the possibilites that said engine was trying to match thrust demand given by the thrust lever and the guy (or gal) who operates the thrust levers is called... errr... uh... pilot?
Autothrust
always disarms after touchdown.
Memory items for no spoilers after ldg (per my instructors, no written reference available)
- lift reverse levers
- if they move PNF calls out: "****, we forgot to arm the spoilers" and then the spoilers deploy
- if they don't move, slam the TLs into idle and then the spoilers deploy
- if you're alredy in reverse and there are no spoilers PNF calls out: "****, no spoilers, we're ****** dude!" and prepares for overrun.
Of course, those are just-in-case-items, we never needed to use them since we got our first bus 10yr ago.
