As a pilot myself, that doesn't strike me as disqualifying. The minor problem I have is that it has has no self-verification/disqualification mechanism; even in the face of having two sensors available! The far bigger problem I have is, the automation discounts pilot input as if it's the pilots who are wrong. That's obscene. And it strikes me as a violation of CRM.
I do not accept that pilots must have disabled auto trim in order to prove they are the more valid input source, compared to a single alpha vane sensor. That's perverse. Pilots have to flip switches to prove they are working correctly? Yet the sensors don't have to have self-verification/disqualification, or cross check with an available second sensor?
