From Owain Glyndwr...

"This is the point I don't get. The AI system, as I understand it, seeks to maintain a commanded gee in earth axes not body axes as in your Viper."

How does the a/c orient itself when it unloads? Surprising to me was the THS cranking in when the beginning of the "momentum only" portion of the "climb" began. At the top of the trajectory, what tells the load system monitor to adjust?

Dozy?.."The evidence does not support AF447 being imperceptibly taken into coffin corner by the systems, it very clearly implies that the aircraft was controlled into the stall."


Boy howdy.....
