new airliners arent flown through a comprehensive test program by EASA/FAA pilots though??
I suspect there are a lot of EASA/FAA pilots out there who would give you an arguement over that statement.
You might like to get 'Handling the big jets' from the library or do a search on the major - and I do mean major - mods that the civil cert pilots have demanded before granting certification of a particular type.
Directional control with asymmetric thrust and stalling symptoms (or insistence on shakers and pushers being added) are two particular areas about which there is a lot of history.
