However I still make the point, that in normal ops the 757 (and all other boeings?) the thrust lever matches the actual thrust delivered at any point n time, whereas on the airbus it doesn't.
That may be true but what has been stated in this thread on several occasions, is that: with a manual landing - in any manufacturer's machine - if you leave one TL forward, then it will give the thrust commensurate with that position.
When the report comes out, we may understand more of the other statement that seems to be well made in this thread:- 'That which seemed logical to the pilots
at the time'.
I am not a pilot, merely someone who has read every single post in this thread.
