If, after take off, close to the ground, you have an actual windshear, you want to get out of it. This, IMHO is not done by selecting autopilots, verifying if the AFDS is capable of doing a good job, checking trust is not exceeding the max rated for the flight, and monitoring if the EEC`s are doing what they are designed for
AGREE mostly.
I dont think the discussion was about the decision of selecting the AP ON in a windshear condition,I cerrtainly think all would continue in a manual flight.

No need to check thrust are exceeding the max rated as you would have normally taken off with max rate (N1 limit)in the first place.(no derate/no Ass).

Only the fact to firewall automatically is an issue I hoped to discuss along with technical data that go with it.
Again we all agree,if the you aint climbing and getting closer to terra firma then firewall the bi@@@@@
