B777 Envelope Protection
Just continue working on the 777 for MSFS i've a question about the Overspeed and Stall Protection. It is almost clear to me that Pilots can't trim "into" such Situations (can't trim down into Overspeed or up into Stall). But it's not clear to me what happens if the Airplane reaches Overspeed or Stall.
As an Example: Autothrottle is OFF and a Pilot apply full thrust. Does the Airplane automatically trim "Nose up" to avoid exceeding Speed limits? In reverse, does the Airplane automatically trim "Nose down" to avoid reaching stall-conditions (if A/T is OFF so it can't apply thrust)?
It would be nise to get some Information about this. I know that these are non-normal Procedures in flight but theoretically possible.
Regardless of this just two Screenshots from MSFS showing the "Normal" and "Direct" Flight-Control Mode.
