syseng - if you dig out the PGF Airbus accident thread you will find some good flow charts of software logic there (I think from PJ2).

I am now reeling in a state of shock to find that there are not just 2 'Alternate Law' programmes but at least 5 (Post #1311) and I am wondering how on earth a human is supposed to work out wtf is going on - or perhaps he/she isn't?

I suggest that if the 'finding' is 'pilot error' it may well be quite 'excusable'.

It seems that a number 1 priority is that AB recognise that their aircraft can stall and sort out the stall warning logic so that mere humans can see what is actually happening.

The earlier query about misleading attitude information is a good one - we have 'accepted' that because of the ACARS stream the ADIRUs were delivering correct information - but this could be wrong, of course.
