autothrottle disc not working properly

I noticed that on a manual landing when I disconnect the autothrottle with the button on the side of the throttle, the autothrottle indeed disconnects. But when I land the aircraft, it connects itself again and the aircraft increases speed again.

The only way to prevent increasing speed after landing, is to switch of the AT ARM on the MCP. I assume this is a bug?

Can somebody tell me you have the same problem?

Kind regards,
Kees

Have you drop your speed too much on flare that makes slowspeed protection kicks in?

I have the same issues if I disconnect from throttles levers. Upon touch down the aircraft throttle seems to advance to TOGA. This happens only once the a/c has touched down. I simply disarm the A/T to avoid this.

That is exactly what I do. But it is not the official procedure for the 767. So I hope that CS will fix this issue.

Hmmm I've never ever had this problem on the 757/767. And I indeed use the AT Quick disconnects on the throttles. Perhaps can you show us a video?

Add me to the list of folks who have this issue.  Both the 757 and 767 in P3Dv5 unfortunately.
