Hi,
AlphaZuluRomeo
But what do you make of that statement? Are you advocating that, because "automation" (which part(s) ? flight controls? A/P? A/THR? all of those? more?) uses air data, and air data is not 100% reliable, the industry should renounce "automation"??
Air data is 100% reliable .. provided that air data is gathered by a reliable captor
So far ... it's proofed that under certain conditions (who are common for a A330 or any modern airliner) those captors are not reliable and can send false or not information at all to the automatic system
So the industry must not renounce "automation" .. provided they correct the weaknesses
Apparently nothing positive was made for correct the problem ... but paper work and modified training
It's agravated by the fact that this problem is know from ages ..
The original problem stay hidden rear the corner

Since you say so, is this applicable to the case we're discussing, too?
I read in the BEA report N°3 (CVR extracts) that the pilots are telling .. they don't understand and they have no more indications
Or .. the BEA affirm that all was functioning normally (less airspeed indications) and the plane was airworthy
So how you call people facing instrument panel working in a plane working and who are telling they understand nothing ?
