I heard that in lufthansa they don't call out FMA mode changes, is that right?
In my experience in a few airlines, the usual in take off is:
"manual flex, srs, runway, autothrust blue", but many omit the a/thr blue, which is ok because there would be no MAN FLEX if a/THR was not armed, but the A/THR is armed upon setting thrust levers in FLEX/MCT, so it is a change and it should be announced, right?
