Bearfoil,
The first Input I did not consider continuous.
However I did not understand the BEA Note as implying that the move up of the THS would have started upon the initial NU Input, but rather the continuous 'To the Left and Nose-Up Stops' as initiating the move of the THS.
I agree the rate of the THS move is a bit mysterious.
Maybe it is a wording problem and in reality there was a time delay included in the overall timespan of 1 minute that it supposedly took for the THS to move from 3 to 13°.
