TOGA

Has the autopilot trimmed the aircraft exactly how much to keep it on the glide, whilst speed was decaying. Now, when you apply TOGA power in this kind of trim condition, would that render the pitch behaviour of the aircraft almost uncontrollable
I've followed this from the beginning too, but if the information is already posted, I apologise, but.....

Is one of the automatic functions performed by TOGA a full-rate reduction of nose up trim and application of nose down trim to compensate for the onset of thrust-induced nose up attitude?

Or does that need to be done manually?
