Again, try and stay on topic. My post didn't say that you can't fly an airbus without electricity, it said that you can't fly an airbus without computers.
See above.

Edited to add: I'm still waiting for the instructions on how to put an Airbus in direct law. I'd like to try and fly it that way if I ever get assigned to a mx flight.
You're in Direct Law whenever you land.

If you want to force Direct Law in flight, then the only way to do so is to sabotage the systems. I don't understand why you'd want to.
