> Computers should never overrule manual controls.
The aoa system was put in place specifically to keep pilots from stalling planes. By design, it has to override manual controls. This is like saying ABS shouldn't override the brakes on a car.
- briatx 8y agoWell, how well does that work whenever the AoA sensors are faulty? All it really had to do was decrease the sensitivity of the controls not override it. Once the manual controls were pulled back all the way the computer should have disengaged. > This is like saying ABS shouldn't override the brakes on a car Remind me, does the ABS system make the car speed up?
