And we have the bozos who setup the cirriculum for AB330 pilots teaching them to keep their grubby paws off the trim wheels at all times and the designers who told the software people to never resume autotrim once the pilots mess with the trim wheels. Oy vey!
JD-EE, we were temporarily lead astray by forum members who apparently believed that autotrim would not resume control once you made a manual trim input. PJ-2 has kindly set us straight (with technical references) and explained that autotrim will resume once you take your paws off the trim wheel. I strongly suspect there is some misinformation adrift in the Airbus community that needs correction. I wonder how BEA will address that?
