Hi,

PJ2, this characteristic was intentionally implemented in the A/C? If so, why? If not, it could be improved?

For example, take into account Altitude as an input parameter in order to "help" the crew perform better the (less common) cruise level manual handling? That can occur in adverse conditions (severe turbulence, degraded (intermittent) avionics, etc.)

How you compare the difference (quantifying) in sensitivity (roll x pitch in Alt II) versus Alt I (if there is) and versus NL. The reason of my question is:

To understand "how different" was the plane PF "received" when was "inserted" in the loop and started to apply the corrections he decided (after processing the inputs he is receiving).

The "decision making" PF made (his first reaction) is unknown, obviously. But, we can infer, something important (to him) under the conditions he was facing, led him to.
