Another question (s) ...

I'm now slightly confused with pressing/holding the priority button haha.

So if a pilot presses the priority button, the autopilot is disconnected but BOTH side-sticks have control? (algebraically summed together)

If a pilot then presses on HOLDS the button, he/she has has full priority? If so, can the other side-stick take control whilst the opposing button is pressed?

If a pilot presses and HOLDS the button for more than 40 SECONDS, does this lock the other side-stick? If so, how long for and when does it return to normal mode?

Thanks!
