Hi Svarin,

Thanks for that link to the very interesting document by Rechtsanwalt Prof. Dr. Ronald Schmid, Frankfurt am Main.

The aircraft designer must therefore, if necessary, even dispense with technical advances in order to ensure that the aircraft remains operable, comprehensible and thus controllable by the human being. Under no circumstances can technology be permitted to filter or block out information, much less take action on its own.
I agree with him completely. If Airbus FBW in ALT LAW doesn't have the same stall protection as Normal Law, then pilots should have the natural "elevator feel" returned to them, by disabling the auto trim function.
