Apha-prot warning.

Whilst the experts debate each other wether you can have stall protection without phugoid damping, maybe Airbus should find a way of letting unfortunate pilots know that they have entered alpha protection?

Ultimately the only reason we are having this discussion now is the fact that Sully had no idea whatsoever that his airplane was in alpha protect mode. Maybe we do need a sidestick shaker?
