I think you'll find
caveokay was talking about having
and an AP
and an ATH engaged, not both APs.
Ah those traps in the English language...
But the reponse to CAT by the AP and ATH
would be interesting, if somebody can give a reasoned description.
Never having experienced CAT apart from "cobblestones', never the full 'upset' ... can such an 'upset' be a brief and violent event (negative G and all that) after which you get to sort out the damage, or do you find yourself systematically 15,000 ft lower... with a little help from the AP?
