Throttle Procedure for Boeing Landings
Hello,
I am most familiar with Airbus aircraft procedures, but I have been gaining an interest in Boeing systems lately.
I know that in an Airbus, the Auto Thrust is fully commanded (left in the CL detent) until the "RETARD" callout at 10ft.
However, I am unsure of what the standard (i.e. most common) Boeing procedure is. Is the Autothrottle system used, as in Airbus, or is the throttle manually commanded by the PF?
Also, is the Autothrottle in a Boeing disconnected by moving the throttles manually, or do you have to press the instinctive A/T Disconnect buttons on the sides of the levers?
I'd much appreciate some insight into Boeing throttle philosophies!
Thanking you,
Aaron.
