In fact auto retardation of thrust on the basis of RA alone sounds more and more like bull**** the more I think about it. Think about a GPWS scenario with gear down and landing flaps. You initiate the recovery and clear a mountain at 27ft RA. What are we saying here, that the throttle goes to idle???

Please could someone find the relevant FCOM section and state clearly for all too see.

Thanks
