777 has autotrim?
I was of the impression that Boeings only trim for speed, if that?
The problem OP is talking about is that the Buses fly counter-intuitively, and take away command authority in ways he isn't comfortable with. As a pilot I think what he is saying is that he wants the responsibility to actually command the inputs - even many of them - all of them - to the ship - because then he knows what he has or has not commanded.
AF447 has been a runaway story in the MSM about this, the genie isn't going back into the bottle. The public are interested (and wary?) of the Airbus voodoo, much like engineers, architects etc who use PCs are wary of the so called Apple Mac voodoo.
What's so special about Airbus, except it gives you less work (all possible detriments aside for the minute)?
