Hi 411A ( greetings, long time ... Still flying the 10-11 ?)
Can you confirm that on the L1011 you can line up, engage the FD to T/O and the auto thottles will advance to the calculated power setting, aircraft will remain on centerline ( even with crosswind gusts) rotate at Vr at the correct angle and keep RWY heading until NAV is engaged ?
(Which is what the guys are promising)
