What are the votes on how important it is to be able to "follow through on the controls" in a FBW configuration?
That has proved to be one of the problems with the Airbus if you read the incident reports. There is an indicator in the panel showing control input but who's going to be looking at that when taken by surprise or in a moment of stress. Another recurring problem has been the failure to punch the priority button when the PNF jumps on the controls in an attempt to put things right and salvage a situation.
