&gt; Pulling the stick all the way back is the normal stall recovery procedure for an Airbus 330.<p>Huh?  Where?  Googling doesn&#x27;t reveal anything that seems to jive with what you&#x27;re saying.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.google.com&#x2F;search?q=airbus+a330+stall+recovery+procedure" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.google.com&#x2F;search?q=airbus+a330+stall+recovery+p...</a><p>Perhaps what&#x27;s happening is that Airbus realized in the aftermath of AF447 that the idea of &quot;pull up, the airplane will do what&#x27;s right to save you&quot; wasn&#x27;t a good one and changed their training materials.  I don&#x27;t know for sure as I&#x27;m not terribly familiar with Airbus.  I do think that the whole input averaging is an <i>awful</i> idea though.
