Quote from vilas:
"Basically in manual thrust in any aircraft pitch changes require thrust change but in airbus you only see and do as your hand will feel nothing. It is different but not difficult."
What do you mean by "[in manual thrust] ... in Airbus your hand will feel nothing." ?
(BTW, I agreed with your previous interpretation of the B777 accident at SFO and the B737 at AMS, and the fact that moving throttles are not a panacea for ignorance or complacency.)
