Hi Machinbird,

What you say makes perfect sense. I interpreted that for cruise level flight while being trimmed a bit too high. Stall warning could trigger in turbulence (basically the same effect as maneuvering). It's certainly due to tunnel AF447 thinking about its first stall warning that I'm trying to explain. I don't know also how the EFCS would render this trim feedback with neutral sidestick (hence it was stupid).

I was certainly thinking about opting for the other way!
