Spooky, will get you the same results in just about any large airplane, but this depends on the characteristics of each aircraft – the pitch control sensitivity, lift slope, and interaction with direct lift control or compensating devices. The pitching moment due to thrust may be adverse, e.g. reducing thrust on under slung engines may cause the aircraft to pitch down.
Also, consider the retard characteristics of the A/T; some modern systems have wind (ground speed) correction.
The MD-11 is reported as having a ‘difficult’ pitch control system.
