Hi AirRabbit,
Thanks for the link. Since the flight controls on the A300-600 are irreversible, after AP disconnect any control oscillations would have to come from the flight crew surely? Alternatively, maybe it didn't fully disconnect, so continued to fight the crew's recovery actions.
You are correct about the limited time for recurrent FAA evals. So the onus is on the sim operator to encourage crews to write things up and so get them fixed, rather than just say "the sim always does that" and ignore it. Maintenance engineers cannot fix things they are unaware of.
On the other hand you will always get the pilot or instructor that has a bee in his bonnet about something or other and continually writes something up which is not a defect.
