Elevator Thrust Compensation System
 
I have been reading an old thread recently and saw this interesting statement. I have never heard of this before. Any body know which aircraft types have this sort of system?

"I recently transitioned off of aircraft that had an elevator thrust compensation system that neutralized the pitch up tendency with thrust application and did wonders for controllability in go-arounds and stall recoveries. I can't help but wonder why this simple yet effective control law algorithm isn't adopted on more aircraft."

EMB-170 has that system.

Don't all FBW aircraft have that to a certain degree? At least in the normal operating mode, degraded modes can be different.
