Hi 737Jock,

Eva Air minimum normal-g during push over

Thanks (as always) HN39,

Your figure seems to be about +0.35g? Even allowing for the approximate nature of the data you're working with, does it seem probable that no one went ballistic? (No pun...

A33Zab,

What next...? Thanks.

Just wondering if flash2002's post should be duplicated on the A330/A340 EAD (AoA PROBES) thread, which is currently moribund.
