Interesting with the Airbus, that a higher approach speed reduces risk (see doc linked to above). I'm quoting airbus as I've not seen the equivalent for smaller aircraft documented like this.
Hi Riverrock, time dims the memory for recalling numbers etc. of different airplanes it has been a long time since I did the simulator training at Airbus and I never had the opportunity to fly the Bus in commercial operations......but as I recall in normal law, rudder input was cancelled by the flight computers above floor alpha during the landing approach so side slipping way back in the final approach was not possible in normal law.....
.......is my recall wrong?
