A33Zab,
Thanks for quoting David Learmount’s piece from a month ago. The rest of us have been a bit slack in missing it, and I didn’t even know he had a website.
Looks like freezing of trapped water again?
Conf_iture,
For what it’s worth, my comments on splitting the spoilers (part of the jammed-stab drill on the B707, but I don’t think it’s possible on Airbus FBW aircraft) and use of THS in opposition to FBW-originating down-elevator were mainly to illustrate the severity of the problem facing this crew, and the lack of options other than that of finding a way out of Normal Law (without making the situation worse). They seem to have done a good job.
