preliminary details
Dassault has provided preliminary details of modifications that will allow crews to deselect auto pitch trim and introduces a new surveillance system to detect and stop pitch trim runaways.
These modifications are being tested but still require EASA approval. Dassault has said that a best case scenario may see the first aircraft modified by mid June however, an end of June return to normal operations is more realistic.
the proposed modifications do not address the cause of the Malaysian incident but will limit the adverse of a pitch trim runaway to the extent that the current weight/altitude/speed restrictions will be removed.
