Mr Abrahami conceeded in my last post that there are systems on avail. that can dampen the effects of turbulance etc on aircraft like the A340, as you alluded to. and that it was perhaps a misunderstanding on my behalf for which i apologised
Your most rescent example only helps to highlight my explanation of the dampening operating principle. I feel that your comment "would have thought you would be more than familiar than most about Airbus systems" is uncalled for and to take a page from your book "you as a pilot should know that aerodynamics concerns more then just the wings and control surfaces of an aircraft (or in you case rotor blades)".
I appologise (again) for the confusion and anguish i seamed to have caused you. Yes you were right that there are sytems that Alleviate it was that i mistook the context the word was used. I hope we can leave these professional attacks behind though.
