There's too many posts in this thread from people who think that they know the 330 from a technical aspect when quite honestly they haven't got a clue. A few posts back someone mentioned that the stabiliser has a mechanical backup........it doesn't! The 'steel cable' mearly positions a slide valve and hydraulic power moves the stab.
Yeah I've been kind of amused by those posts myself. Also the ones that seem to suggest that the Airbus is the only fbw aircraft.
