I mentioned that a modification was done to improve the aileron effectiveness but I couldn't locate it. Here is that Mod after Hamburg incident of wing scraping the runway.
The reduced effect of controls was not documented in the system description and was unknown to pilots or the training department.
By now the Flight controls laws logic has been modified with a modification of transition from flight to ground lateral law. This improvement has been certified in 2012 in the ELAC standard L96 and is available through Service Bulletin ref 27-1225.
