Re the MD83 RTO, #98
The report did not discuss the preflight control check. Would the fault be detectable before flight; it was at some point after flight. A similar servo-tab check on the 146 should have detected the stuck elevator, vice free tab; this check was difficult in a tailwind. The MD83 event discusses wind as causing the damage; similar aircraft have gust dampers, were these working.
Nor does the report consider the certification aspects of dual-path, split control systems, which require the ability to rotate and fly with a single system.
Steinar,
'What would you have done', I expect an honest answer would be that we don't know, because such decisions depend on the situation at the time, as assessed then and there; we were not there.
Questions answered with hindsight (as in the report, with outcome knowledge) might have little relevance to real world outcomes; explanations in the last link.
