We are not discussing you or me around here.

What we are discussing is your statement where nice description of FLCH trap was made and concrete example of accident due to it given.

Problem is; FLCH trap (inhibition of autothrottle wake-up on B777 with one FD off and other in FLCH) is not applicable to Airbi, not just because there is no FLCH on them but there is no OP DES trap either and there was never one! Fundamental part is that as Indian Airlines was OP DESed into ground, any 747 can be FLCHed or 737 LVL CHGed in the same manner.

BTW, speaking about "fundementals", it's not even full 27 years yet since A320 entered the service. Not to fly it Canada for more than 26 years would be quite a feat.

Do you have anything to add or are we closing this case?
