Thanks, but my aim wasn't to explain the system. I think that part has been thrashed out thoroughly enough in this thread by now. It was a reaction to your characterization of it as "work[ing] continuously against the pilot," unlike other aircraft. I mean, I don't see the difference between this, and any other transport airplane that meets the stick force per knot requirement naturally without add-on systems. Do you see those as working against the pilot? Maybe your argument is that the 1 pound per 6 knots requirement is too heavy, and it should be, for example, 1 pound per 8 knots (and I might even agree with you!) but that's a different argument entirely... and it would, again, apply the same to any transport airplane.
