Part of the story says:
" ... Airlines have been alerted to a potentially dangerous fault in the flight controls of the latest Airbus that has similarities to the trouble with the
grounded Boeing 737 Max.
The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) has issued an airworthiness directive for the Airbus A321neo after the aircraft was found in certain cases to pitch its nose upwards excessively.
Airbus said this could occur in the event of a hard manoeuvre in the final approach to landing. “This condition, if not corrected, could result in reduced control of the aeroplane,” the EASA directive said.
As a temporary remedy airlines have been told not to load their A321neos, which carry about 185 passengers, with the weight as far to the rear of the aircraft as they were permitted until now. Airlines must change their operations manuals accordingly.
The latest version of the hugely successful A320 series of twin-engined jets went into service in May 2017 and more than 190 are in service around the world with 35 airlines, including 11 with British Airways and Easyjet. ..."
Further in it states:
"... Airbus stressed that the problem with the computer software that operates the tail and wing controls on the A321neo occurred only “in certain and remote conditions and in combination with specific commanded manoeuvres”.
The situation of possible control reduction only involved a low-level hard manoeuvre such as a “go-around” to abort a landing in the final phase, it said. ..."
I don't like the sound of that!
