oh dear Lord help us….
I thought we had seen it all at AF !
There used to be a very good video on Youtube about AF pilots.`The title (in French) translated into something like : ‘ Aaah at AF….where the pilots taught the birds how to fly…’.

Surely Boeing will come out with a report…
Been flying the Triple for nearly 20 years and have never seen or read this kind of behavior by the AP.
Imho it’s still IS one of the most reliable airplanes in the industry….
