How about the autothrust/autothrottles? I assume they move as well unlike FiFi?
Yes I would say the 220 stick is more responsive and has better feel. Of course that’s a little subjective as well. Sidesticks are independent like the A320. The 220 also has this weird speed trim bug which seems to get negative reviews.
A220 is an autothrottle system, so they move unlike A320. One drawback is that they’ll disconnect if you try and override them much to the angst of the 190 transitions at JetBlue. Although it’s really a non-issue even in gusty winds.
