Ok, lets see if I understand this with a slight change in scenario.

1) With auto thrust active and you pull the stick back, once the speed reaches VLS, auto thrust will cause the speed to maintain VLS even with the full aft stick pressure? Is that correct?

2) If auto thrust is not armed/active, then holding the stick aft will cause it to eventually reach VaMax. Somewhere between VaProt & VaMax, Alpha Floor will kick in to help maintain VaMax even though it was not armed/active?


Thanks
