NTSB: Airbus A330 Experienced An 'Airspeed Anomaly' Northwest Flight Crew In Japan Noted Airspeed Fluctuations
The NTSB has released a preliminary
finding in an incident involving a Northwest Airlines Airbus A330
on a flight in Japan last month in which the onboard computers
switched off the aircraft's autopilot possibly due in part to
inconsistent airspeed indications.
Interesting, and this one generated an overspeed alarm, not a stall alarm.
But it also seems that the airspeeds were fluctuating, whereas they just dropped in the Air Caraïbe case. Maybe a slightly different failure mode/sequence ?
