If such an unlikely event might occur the pilots will go through their

That's why the aircrew are there and trained to handle such problems


In fly-by-wire aircraft there are no truly manual controls, are there?
What if the flight crew found their attempts at control input
ineffective do that a hypothetical hack? Are the interconnected
systems designed to prevent the crew's loss of control to the
automated systems?
