Am I missing something?
I dont remember the exact wording but from memory the information sad ”we know exactly what happend and why”. If they withdraw the operational pause I’m positive Sikorsky has issued a AD/EAD or something like that telling aircrew how to operate to not get in the same trouble. Most likely it would say ”Do not use fly through with F/D /Upper modes coupled” or maybe with a combination of maximum pitch/bank attitudes(?) as the information had an part of ”not tested flight regime” or something like that.
All this should be followed by updated FBW software later on, I guess ?
