Lot of very interesting and highly technical information which even very experienced pilots would not have access to has been put out on this thread. But I think it's time to move on from some of the endless aspects of the argument. Nothing new is being discussed or brought out. It's like the warring factions trying to give one last blow as a sign of having won the context. some of the salient points I noted to end the argument are:
FBW is here to stay whether you like it or not.(No one's designing conventional airliners)
Value of duplicating side stick movement is not likely to be proved till the end of the world (same as yoke VS side stick)
Tactile feedback on the controls will remain personal opinion.
