And that is about as close as we have come to X marks the spot to date. Nice work FluidFlow!
An impact South of LKP would seem to confirm an early entry into a deep stall and a relatively tight circular path after LKP, IMHO.
Does anyone know what happens when Airbus protections collide? Which takes priority? There aren't that many protections. It should be a relatively compact matrix.

In past discussions, we have assumed, for example, that Vmo/Mmo Protections would be limited by the pitch attitude protections, but it is really all dependent on how the software was coded.
There may have been a programming assumption that protections never collide, and thus a software booby trap could exist.
