ahh yes, alpha prot will save us....

If i'm on my 'dinosaur' aircraft flying at 330kts and want to pull up to 60 deg up and wash the speed off, i can, because i.m in control.

The 'scarebus' won't let you pull more than 30deg up from the horizon ?, nothing to do with the AOA ??

OEB's ? the thing that the airbus 'tech guys' publish in the back of the QRH because they can't be bothered to fix the problem.

Checklists that are half ECAM / half paper.

Fmgc's that dump the flight plan because they 'think' they have landed, because you flew to 'near' the airport.

Landing calculations, the like of which no one has ever seen before, multiplying this percentage by that percentage but only if icing with flap 3 landing otherwise multiply by 8% + landing correction and add it to the landing distance required if all is ok.

And all while the other bloke might be handflying ??

Returning to subject, is there not an 'OEB' for sparking generator plugs causing half the electrical system to 'flicker' ?
