The AB(380) uses the 'Weight and balance backup computer', which itself uses altitude, mach, alpha, elevator and trimmable tail position. It's used if both fuel quantity management systems fail, and supposedly provides data used to compute the flight control laws and to provide a warning against excessively aft cg.

767? No, why would it? It has real flight controls.
