With respect, riddle me this; how do you expect Bonin to have a feel for what the "normal" roll gains are and therefore be thrown by the difference in Alt2B when it is on record that he had no training and likely little or no experience in manual handling at high altitude?
It's a logical certainty that one cannot be wrong-footed by a change in response when one has no experience of what the normal response is, surely?
