Just a few things i would like to clarify..

You can do anything u want on an airbus FBW system. Its as simple as turning off the flight augmentation computers and put the roll into alternate law. From there you can actually roll an airbus.

Airbus aircraft do have artificial feel in the side stick. The very firtst A320's did not have this but all other airbus's do. Having flown various aircraft, I still prefer the old fashioned yoke on the boeing. It makes it much easier to land during a crosswind.
