This thread is getting away, as usual, onto Airbus perceived faults bythose who don't have any idea how good it is and how safe it can be compared to the geriatrics many of us pilots, including me, have flown.
You think a plane automatically trimming the aircraft out of control range without warning or feedback and keeping it like that while it should had been trimmed back to normal is safe ? The auto trim exist because the sticks have no force feed back. In other word this system which generated this situation is only required by the useless design of the sidesticks. Same applies to the fixed thrust levers: no benefits, keeping pilots out of the loop while it could be crucial (TAM Sao Paulo).
