A B-727 with blocked pitot tubes in the nineteen-seventies.
A B-757 of Birgenair with blocked pitot tubes, where the autopilot maintained nose up and the autothrottle powered back (to keep the false speed indication below the limit)
MD-82 over Venezuela in 2005 and MD-83 over Mali in 2014.
Works whether the aircraft is equipped with Fly By Wire, or with "old fashioned cables", with interconnected yokes, or non-connected sidesticks, gues what, would even work in a single seater with only one set of flight controls, works with or without auto trim function; by the way, even a non-Airbus aircraft autotrims as long as the autopilot is in control, and, as in Mali, that could be up until the stall and wingdip.
