Tkanks for your reply, DozyWannabe, I'll take it that those here who know the A320 systems have ruled out the theory.
By the way, am not afraid of FBW, just of Airbus FBW, of throttles that don't feedback, and sidesticks not interconnected, that's all. And I know a lot of A320 pilots who like the acft, but agree with me. There are other ways of designing FBW systems, and I guess Airbus already knows that. But that's beside the Congonhas accident, for the moment.
Cheers
