AF 447 Thread No. 11

[Chris Scott]

Hi DonH,

Think the report says the copilot only pressed the AP instinctive-disconnect PB on his sidestick once (top of Page 13)?

Am in full accord with your analysis of CRM aspects. Quite shocking mis-prioritisation of actions from start to finish of the incident. Hard to know where to start...

Yes, it also reflects my experience of the common underuse of wx radar, and misunderstanding of how to use it effectively to avoid flying into or over the upper parts of Cbs.

I do remember that the disengagement conditions were modified after the AIRPROX incident, but I don't remember the details.

Thanks, but it was news to me. The only recommendations in the AAIB Bulletin relate to RVSM procedures.
