I'm in as much doubt as you on the limitation figures. I will go with the experts on the A330. **

Engine out - good point there. The yaw dampers would attempt to take care of the initial asymmetrical thrust moments and after a manual application, trim would take over from there. At cruising speeds, the deflection angles would indeed be small and I was caught out on that one. Good find and correction of my points offered.

A bit late here and I am in no condition to be at the helm of a car let alone a yoke or sidestick on an airplane.
