please excuse me if my technical term "Fast Data Recording" is not strictly correct .....
my question ......
"Fast Data Recording" is employed to routinely monitor Pilot/aircraft performance/procedures on large passenger aircraft and to highlight deviations from standard practice or identify "Bad Practice" etc ......
I "almost" get the impression that the PF on this flight may have been the first pilot to have ever used his rudder in the "Aggressive" way that he did (I appreciate that malfunction has still to be ruled out) ......
surely routine data recording would have highlighted over time that Rudders were being used excessively and that load limits etc were being exceeded? ..... or is this almost a "One Off" ? ....
cheers .... hobie ......
