Im a Boeing man so cant comment directly on the Airbus and the 'Force Feedback' but I assume its very similar to the forces felt on the Boeings.
You do not feed the actual control throught he control column as these would be huge and there would be no pilots able to fly the aircraft. The force we feel is artifical through a system called Q Feel which provides a force to the control column proportional to the dynamic pressure experienced by the aircraft.
