Could we get some confirmation from PJ2 or A33Zab?
(@RRR - I don't know about "belief" - I'm asking for some confirmation. Either way it doesn't alter the fact that without overcontrolling, the THS wouldn't have ended up in that position, or that it was possible to set the THS position either by maintaining nose-down inputs or moving the trim wheel. RWA seems to be under the misconception that autotrim commands a THS angle and holds it there regardless of input, when in fact it's just following elevator demand - a mistake I made when I first started looking into this)
