The incident, which has only recently come to light, caused the pilots to declare an emergency and, facing braking problems, ask for the longest available runway.

i noted that the aircraft went next day back into full service, a tribute to the ground crew employees of Delta. I also note that even with the combination of system flaws, this airbus was able to make a safe landing, a tribute to the designers of the 320. Good pilots also made the safe landing possible.
It interesting to note that there were so many concurrent system failures. Were these failures a result of; poor or inadequate design/engineering, or poor manufacturing techniques methods? Or, was it insufficient or incorrect maintenance. It would be informative to know the answers.
