"..........The reports I read stated the new design wasn't flight tested on the A300-600. Instead the A310 flight test data was extrapolated for the longer fuselage length of the A300-600. So they end up with the most sensitive rudder(rudder displacement per degree of rudder pedal travel) and it wasn't flight tested???..............."
FYI:
The A321 was not initially flight tested in actual icing conditions. The A320 flight test data was extrapolated despite the different flap/slat design of the A321. It was subsequently tested and modifications were made to the ELAC system on or about the year 2001.
Caveat emptor.
