I like how Boeing ties the controls together.. this "averaging" deal seems flawed.

SEEMS flawed? Holy crap....when I read that I about fell over!!!! I can't BELIEVE they are set up that way. If they had been synced...the reaction most likely would have been: "WTF are you pulling back so much for????"

I hope someone here can shed some light as to why being "averaged" is a good idea...
