Read the question before answering...
h3dxb, have you read the title of this thread?
We're talking A320 here, not A330! So no PRIM, no SEC's (and I mean Secondary Flight Control Computer not Spoilers Elevator Computer)...on A320.
It's quite feasible to end in Direct law on A320, and far more unprobable on A330 I admit.
If a failure leads you to fly in alternate law, you WILL end in Direct Law once the gear is down, why? Because there is no Flare law in ALTN law, the only way to flare the aircraft is to put it in Direct law...it has been designed like that.
But again, the related topic is on A320, not A330/340.
Edit: this msg is redondant with ALK's...saw it after.
