- It is true that we tend to put in aft or forward stick when rolling right or left. Seems that some FBW systems with the small "side stick" are even canted to account for this. OTOH, I don't see this as a big deal for this accident.
Hey Gums,
When your Leading Edge Flap (LEF) on your Viper folded up and you were flying with nearly full lateral stick, did that give you control problems other than banging into the control stop on one side?
I don't imagine you ever needed to go through the center of the lateral stick travel then. Would that have made life more interesting with the force reversals on the stick? (Never mind, your Viper stick didn't move, did it?)
Supposing your aircraft wasn't computer stabilized in roll any more and was oscillating quite a bit in roll. How much pucker factor would that have added?
Just trying to put Viper experience in a comparable context.
