turbo...you are correct. IF you move the control column counter to what the AP is doing, it WILL disconnect.

I could teach you, or just about anyone, the basics in just a few hours. Heck!! There is a MicroSoft Program out there right now that helps wannabe Airline Pilots feel as if they can fly!!!
Let's start with a simple lesson then:
Tell me how the autopilot can remain engaged if the yoke is moved abrubtly.
P.S. Thanks for reporting me and avoiding questions again Repeat. It's very
odd that you don't want to engage in a debate with me...since you're
so 'good' at what you do and all.
Note to weedhacker: He's playing the game of the ever changing subject matter until he finds one that you either can't answer or one that he will argue about until the end of time. I'm sure you know it's a common tactic....
I am sorry for bursting a few bubbles here. I realize that there are pilots, with opinions. BUT, just being a pilot, with an opinion, doesn't mean you have all of the answers. UNLESS you, like me, actually not only have a type-rating in the B757/767 and some thousands of hours IN the airplanes.
IF you have these credentials, then please feel free to debate me.

you step up and explain why the autopilot is still engaged while the yoke
is moved about.

Thought I would stop by for a visit just to add something to the OP. No Turbofluff, you are not on the OP topic which is UAL93 Airborne ...

Airspeed Limits: VMO = 350 KCAS/.86 M
VLE = 270 KCAS/.82 M
VLO = 270 KCAS/.82 M
For other airspeed limits, see the appropriate FAA-Approved Airplane Flight Manual listed in Note 2.
This is followed almost immediately by an increase in A/S, to about 350 KIAS (340 is the VMO).

No, I am addressing the OP gents. I see you cannot, so you guys are changing the subject and pretending no one notices.
