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 ?
No confirmation, as it wouldn't do any of those items you've mentioned, during the takeoff maneuver...well, at least the L1011's that I have flown, anyway.

And yes, still flying the type, from time to time.
