While we haven't thoroughly exhausted all possible failure modes of
the complex Airbus flight control systems, the information you have
provided has convinced me that minds trained in the disciplines
required to engineer these systems have spent significantly more time
analyzing their design than I am willing to commit. Thank you for
elucidating the arcana of Airbus' computerized electro-hydrolytic
flight control systems. It is enlightening indeed.
You're most welcome.
An interesting side note- During a sim session break, I strolled over to the
A330/340 sim and peeked inside. It looked almost exactly the same as the
A320 sim. The transition course is 4 days. The A380 and A350 transition
courses are expected be the same. To change the 330 sim into a 340 sim, a
sim tech changes the throttle quadrant and reboots. It takes about 5 minutes
total.
