I am aware of cali and that is most certainly not what I am referring to.

Maybe you didn't go back far enough on the transcript. One airspeed guage was working on takeoff. the other 2 had been gotten to by mud daubers I think. Anyway after takeoff the other 2 airspeed guages started to increase speed with altitude (as they will with a plugged static port) Soon they got the overspeed warning. The captain then ignored the functioning guage and pulled the aircraft up to try and silence the overspeed (that is never gonna work in this condition) Aircraft hits water with control never restored.

Cheers
