Maybe system failure or inadequate training is more to blame, and the

At Airbus, pilots are always at fault by definition, no matter who or
what was actually at fault. Remember Habsheim.

Ignoring much of the controvery over the investigaion, the pilot at
Habsheim should get a major chunk of the blame. Anyone who chose to risk
an aircraft, full of passengers, at the limits of its capability, during an
unpracticed demonstration, over an airfield he was unfamiliar with, should
have his head examined.
