SuperFLUF said:How many other software flaws are there? Can an engineer sitting at a desk really anticipate every single possible scenario that might occour in flight? Could even the world's best pilot do that? I think not. SOFT limits are necessary for FBW so that glitches may be over ridden.
That's why Airbus switched to soft limits in the 380.
The Iberia Bilbao accident had nothing to do with letting them stall the aircraft, nor was a stall imminent. The stall protection logic MALFUNCTIONED and did not allow them to perform a go around/windshear escape manuver when it was necessary.mynameisjim said:The report you just mentioned is the report I was referring to in my post. If the airplane had let them stall, would that have been better?
The accident above is a good reason, they were lucky that it didn't end up much worse.I just can't think of any reasons why I would ever need to exceed the protections of the airplane
