This is not true. In most cases you will get warnings but if you are hands-on you can fly into an unrecoverable situation, specially if you are not very high.

  The systems prevent you from flying outside of the flight envelope, not from smashing the plane into the ground. Of course you can crash if you want, but the plane will still be within the flight envelope.

    Not true for Boeing airliners; keep pulling back on the yoke of a Boeing, and it will stall just like any other aircraft.

      Possibly, I'm mostly familiar with Airbus. I thought the newer 787s were more FBW-ish.
