Hey Flytiger,

The 777 trims for speed. My point is if you are manually flying the airplane and it automatically trims for your control inputs to produce a "maneuver" that is auto trim. In my mind no back pressure or trim input required for bank angles up to 30 degrees means auto trim. It also auto trims for gear and flap selections. I don't see the difference between auto trimming for attitude or speed. It's still auto trim.
