Yup. I forgot to mention that it will also adjust pitch to compensate for speed or configuration changes. It looks pretty weird when one just reads descriptions in read from FCOM so I approached type rating course apprehensively but it turned out to be quite easy to adapt to Airbus ways, there 's no need to think "what is the FBW doing now" all the time (or at all). We had a lot of movement both from classic controls to Airbus and vice versa but no one ever had problems learning or unlearning the sidestick.
