Yeah, I wish to know the rationale for asynchronous joysticks.
Not only that, also the computer *averaged* the inputs (I am really at loss with that, in a plane. If there is a mountain in front of the plane, and one pilot pulls left, while the other pilot pulls right, the computer makes the "smart" decision to fly ahead straight throught the mountain.)
At least if it would let you know: "the other post is giving me other inputs! I warn you, I am averaging the inputs!". It did not warn. As the right seat has been pulling all back, the left seat saw nothing else that the plane did not respond (or very little) to his own inputs. He, following his inputs, have no feedback about how the plane is reacting. Not knowing the other is pulling back, all that he saw was an iressponsive plane.
Anyway, systems might be blamed. But the attitude of that guy who never informed the others that he was pulling back for a quarter of hour is the issue there.
