Nobody seems to have asked the question of WHY this is happening? Is it poor heating of the probes, or poor radars and poor manipulation and interpretation of the radar picture ? Could it be the weather becoming more extreme or is it because there are simply more aircraft in the air meaning there are more incidents?
I do not remember any aircraft of the previous generation reporting such problems.
The one thing that has surprised me is that the refined FBW laws and architecture of the A330 and later aircraft where it is very difficult to get the aircraft into Direct Law ,have not found their way back into the A320 family.
