This particular situation is nothing else than one additional example how the sidestick concept as implemented by Airbus deprives a PNF or/and observers from a very valuable source of information.
Such sidestick concept
- for single crew operation : anytime
- for multi-crew operation : loss of information of great value
Why losing information of great value should be ignored ?
Why the BEA is unable to even discuss the point when the AAIB has openly acknowledged such loss ?
