I understand and accept the points that someone somewhere makes. It would be interesting to to see the stats on why exceedences occur with FADEC controlled engines versus ‘steam driven’. I have from time to time pondered the Airbus ‘revolution’ of FBW. Is it possible that the’pilot proof’ aircraft simply meant that we crashed for different reasons,more related to misunderstanding or not being fully aware of the tech stuff (AFD sitems as an example) that is installed. As I said, I am a dinosaur, although not quite extinct. Please take my comments as meandering thoughts for discussion, rather than prescriptive ‘solutions’.
