Is that true that in the case of AF 447, even if the stick was at neutral position AFTER the beginning of the stall by the PF, the aircraft would have maintained elevators AT FULL NOSE UP to maintain 1G as it's Airbus rule, and with stick full fwd, the elevators will be also in nose up but in half nose up position. True ?
So it'll be impossible to recover the aircraft even with full fwd stick, also aggravated by the THS that was at FULL NOSE UP due to pilot actions. True ?
I just have another question to avoid opening another subject concerning Airbus Load Factor Protections.
As we know, in clean config, the g load limit is +2.5g positive, so with a bank to 67 degrees for example, (or a high positive pitch), the load factor will be approximately 2.5g, so does it means that we'll loose authorities in pitch even by pulling it full back or full fwd as we are in g limit ? Is that true ? It's strange if that's true ? I remember the Gulf Air crash with that.
I don't understand exactly this function on Airbus FBW, as it's not detailled in the manuals of the aircraft, anyone to answer this Load Factor prot. with Airbus?
Thanks !
