The pilots use full harnesses
Anywhere below 10000 feet but rarely at cruise level.

Takata, if you are asked to fully stall your aircraft for exercice, would you still trim up past the early signal of the approaching stall ?
Why automation has been doing something you would not ever do yourself ?
IF ... the pilots were confused enough to maitain NU inputs, was it necessary for the automation to help them in their confusion ?
Leave on their shoulders that kind of initiative.

I have discussed this memorized drill and checklist a number of times on previous threads.
PJ2, I am unconfortable with your view here.
You have not adressed my concerns.
