PJ2 I do not wish to put you on the spot.
Can you direct me to information I can assimilate that will answer a few basic questions re: AB a/p disengage and degrade to Alt Law, and the parallel and exquisitely important well studied and trained for reaction by human crew who, after disc a/p must fly the a/c at a higher skill level than the just abandoned automatics, and do so without aileron, a taste of Pitch trim, and a Rudder that deflects to a predetermined value, however appropriate?
Bear with me. I am understanding that with autos on in cruise, and a programmed set of predetermined limits relative to G, roll, (rate and limit) and protections, there is a point at which the a/c logic abandons a challenging controlled flight regime to pilots whose skills are doubted enough to recommend that a/p not be disconnected, and the computer disconnects due to unreliable airspeed data? It may seem untoward, but I get the distinct feeling that at auto disconnect, the a/c is trying to escape some kind of Blame for what may ensue.
