A320 over controlling/PIO fix.
I’m looking at trying to find reasons reasons for A320 pilots over controlling resulting in PIO.
There’s the obvious factor of not fully understanding the airbus FBW concept but I’m more looking at effects of seat and armrest positions causing over controlling the sidestick.
I think there’s an airbus article saying armrest position can negatively effect physical control of the sidestick but I’m wondering what the extremes could mean? For example would too high armrest position does this result in not enough control? Too low an armrest position too much?
Likewise with pedal positions. I’ve seen 6ft tall pilots have pedal positions at 2 or 3. Surely this could result in strange arm settings and thus increase chance of over controlling?
I’m interested in finding a correlation between over controlling and physical seat/armrest position so hopefully can help with over controlling in not just inexperienced but also experienced crew.
Would be interested to hear other viewpoints or advice on fixing this. Thanks
