I have a quick question - I'm not too afraid of Rainboe (unlike another poster) but I just hope he doesn't get too stressed

I read with interest Safta's sim report and then a subsequent post showing the stall recovery procedure from Boeing (around page 84 of this thread). The procedure didn't say anything about hitting the TO/GA switch and Safta didn't say if AT was controlling the thrust.

I guess my real question is if recovering from a stall, using the procedure set out by Boeing, if the AT is in control of the thrust - and there is a low altitude reading coming from the appropriate radalt, would the AT not reduce the thrust DURING the stall recovery procedure? I understand that pressing TOGA will disconnect AT....

Sorry for disturbing again...
