We are discussing TO here. In a modern airline with pax onboard.
Really want to see the airline which encourages raw data TO in daily operations.
What is so special about it? It is basic airplane flying 101. Is the training in your company really so bad that they cannot trust their own pilots to do basic airplane handling? I don't doubt that you're able to do it with your background, but SOPs that actively discourage pilots from basic flying are a sure sign of a huge training deficit.
Just for reference, that is what our 737 FCOM says under the header Autopilot/Autothrottle Policy:
Continuous use of automatic systems leads to loss of basic knowledge of power settings/pitch attitudes and reduces the ability to fly accurately with a low workload. Pilots should therefore regularly fly the aircraft manually, with emphasis on manual departures/ approaches with and without the flight director.
Some never use the FD except during low vis operation (FD is not required for AP usage), some take a more moderate view and do every now and then take offs and approaches without using the FD.
Quite true by the way that wrong rotation and initial climb out can invalidate performance figures, our -800 performance is based on 2°/sec rotation rate and the -700 on 2,5°/sec. Unlike during the classic days we do not fly the short version (600) as it doesn't make any commercial sense, but performance would be based on 3°/sec.
