So, general anti FBW ranting aside, at which point do you suppose the FCS overrode the pilot's input, causing or contributing to the accident?
Is it actually is possible (is it? I really do not know) for the system to have the last word? Be honest please, think, is it possible for the system with A particular set of circumstances to override the pilots? I know it is like asking what if a wing falls off so please humor me with this seemingly naive question. I am just a old DC8/9 guy and the only glass I have flown is on a helicopter.
