DE FACTO thanks for quoting my original question. That's exactly what I wanted to know and it would be interesting to know if someone else could confirm what you've just said.
I do also apoligise as my question was specifically refering to the 737NG.
If in doubt during the AUTOMATIC FLIGHT case I'd push the TOGAs twice, three or even four times. As long as A/T is giving me full power to escape the WS I am happy, otherwise I'd disconnect everything and revert to the MANUAL FLIGHT case as per QRH. Mine was purely a question aimed to improve my knowledge of the automatic systems.
Thank you guys for all your answers provided so far and if anyone has anything else to add, please do.
