If the sophisticated computer systems will do their best not allow the pilot to crash, why disable (by design) the A/T wake-up in FLCH-mode? Or to rephrase the question: In what cases will the plane crash when A/T wakes up in FLCH-mode? I’m not a professional pilot, but just curious; who would ever say “Thank God the A/T didn't wake up in FLCH mode”? Is this feature really needed?
