Surely (Shirley?) you're not saying if I am at 2100 feet on the Glide with 2000 M/A set its going to go down in TOGA.
No, my bad, I didn't read your post properly (blame a Borolo induced hangover). GAs at heights above TOGA activation have seen recent discussion at our place and the importance of setting the MAA first if you're using Level Change. We've got a handful of aircraft where TOGA activates above 2000' but most don't.
