Reason ?
Originally, this is what Airbus had edicted but then idiots started tinkering and changed procedures....
Haven't seen any changes on that matter for the past 20 years, but maybe it's before that...
In fact, when IT was swallowed by AF, there were glaring differences in procedures and AF got its way by imposing A/THR 24/7 REGARDLESS of mode!!!
So no A/P and no A/THR in OPEN and fly like a man!!!
Tell that to you instructor!
We also fly like men in RVSM airspace and congested terminal areas.
By the way April 1st is gone already
