Nothing from Airbus yet, but they aren't necessarily better about keeping the crew in the loop.
The Airbus RA1+2 ECAM is a beast. Definitely "keeps you in the loop" and things get even more exciting when the gear goes down. This fault is practiced in the sim quite often. The implications of this failure are well known to anyone flying the Airbus. And because an Airbus's thrust levers do not move by themselves and because power reduction has to be accomplished manually (except in an Autoland situation) you are not going to be susceptible to the kinds of issues a Boeing is. Airbus automation is superior in functionality and safety compared to a Boeing (I've flown both).
