Chris, ...remember the original post left us with no fuel therefore no APU start.

Whoops!

Good discussion, though.

PS (Historical note)
That problem of potential stall of the original RAT with the L/G down plus sideslip meant that the electrical system was still undergoing redesign when the first line-pilot courses were being conducted at Blagnac in January 1988. The A320 finally gained type-certification in the February.
