Re Roselawn, ATR 72 etc, The event gave rise to substantial changes to §25, and added to the Appendices to the part; runback icing became a big deal, as did SCLD. (Both off those issues happen to be well modelled by FENSAP-ICE if anyone from an FAA ACO is listening... ). The rules frown on roll reversal prior to the stall however defined by the manufacturer, and for a small period below the stall reference speed. Getting reversal is usually a pretty lousy bit of design in the first place. A prop powered plane may get a pretty neat wing drop at the stall, but the ailerons should not get a reversal before the margin after the stall.

A B737 managed to get a recorded aileron reversal, happened to be about VNE+120KCAS at the time and was fixed by the wings departing the fuselage with unfortunate results. doing an inflight realignment of all AHRS platforms in a thunderstorm is part of nature selection process at work.
Wasn’t the ATR a reversal situation or a case of aileron snatch. I thought it was the latter. Will have to re-read the Indonesian 737 report as I don’t remember that issue (or is it hidden away in an annex).

Would like more detail on the Saab issue.
