what they don't tell you is that when the pitot tubes freeze the computer takes over and stalls the airplane. They blamed the pilot for this in the Air France crash. They are trying to tell you that the pilot has final say so and this is not true. Hence the old saying "if it ain't a Boeing I ain't going" Boeing planes allow the pilot the final say so. You Euros will probably say I am full of sh!t but Airbus is a roach !!! You can't convince me that the pilots are so dumb they can't fly the artificial horizon. If you freeze the pitot tube the computer will lower the nose which is why the Air France pilot had the joystick pulled back. They will find the black boxes with this crash but do you really think they will tell the truth??
