Analysis of the behaviour of the ELAC L102 (Elevator Aileron Computer) installed on A321neo revealed that excessive pitch attitude can occur in certain conditions and during specific manoeuvres. This condition, if not corrected, could result in reduced control of the aeroplane.

Någon som är insatt i varför detta skiljer sig från A320 NEO? Antar att viss hårdvara och mycket mjukvara är samma i 320 och 321.
