Thanks, so therefore it's options for remaining in the air would be FMS commanded flight, or hand flying, and that it would be unable to rely on a third possibility of dynamic stability, to phugoid it's way along until fuel exhaustion or terrain impact at a low point of the amplitude.

Low roll stab will also indicate that the first divergences would occur in roll, and turning flight (or spiral flight) rather than more or less straight tracks would be the result. Would you agree ?
