HazelNuts39 Lyman,

If you take a look at figure 64 of the english version of the final report, you will see that
(a) the THS did not remain 'parked' during 43 seconds, and
(b) the THS is too slow to follow quick movements of the elevator.

According to the traces of THS in IR#3, it was parked for 43 seconds.
How is a graph different due language in the accompanying text?

Too slow? So it ignores trends over time? Pretty easy to circumvent its action; so then why retain it? Bump the stick many small times so as not to wake the beast?

I trust you, as always, but here I do not believe you. For me, I would need to see the pertinent data from Airbus, re: trimming.

WAIT.... So that is why all Bus drivers stir mayonnaise? Eureka, now we know they do not like Autotrim either. Small bumps and suss... Small bumps and suss, etc. etc. fear? Or loathing? Both?
