Somewhere in the body of the cited article it's mentioned pilots received training or the like warning them of the danger. In the real world, however, if a circumstance occurs, like wake turbulence, and a pilot thinks full rudder deflection is needed that foot is going to push hard on the rudder. If control pressures didn't supply enough feedback for me to know I was approaching some limit I would say there's a design flaw. If the NTSB conclusion is supported the Airbus folks have a problem that a computer fix, as opposed to training, is going to have to solve. |
