Once again, thanks Flight Detent!
But I think that I have understood that part...

Ok, let me explain myself:
We have our thrust IDLE, autopilot off, we reach alpha protection, and the plane pitches to maintain the alpha protection speed. But then we pull on the stick and the plane reaches alpha max, and alpha floor gives you full TOGA thrust. We release the stick and the plane stops at 220 knots, it then goes back to alpha protection speed, by the speed controlled by thrust. Then it maintains that by pitch.

1) Am I right till here?

Well, I hope...
My question, with which thrust levers is the alpha protection speed controlled with pitch? Is it IDLE, because we were in IDLE?

Same question:

We have our thrust CLIMB, autopilot off, we reach alpha protection, and the plane pitches to maintain the alpha protection speed. But then we pull on the stick and the plane reaches alpha max, and alpha floor gives you full TOGA thrust. We release the stick and the plane stops at 220 knots, it then goes back to alpha protection speed, by the speed controlled by thrust. Then it maintains that by pitch. My question, with which thrust levers is the alpha protection speed controlled with pitch? Is it CLIMB, because we were in CLIMB?

PS: Could anyone give me the angles at AoA? Rotation, climb, cruise, descent, alpha prot, alpha max...

Thanks a lot,
