Good to see you are finally reading the report! Re the CAS the report states:
At 15 h 45 min 42 s, the speed parameter recorded became invalid.
At 15 h 45 min 53 s, the pitch reached 7° nose down. The recorded speed became valid again at 46 kt.
CAS invalid below 40 kt. I can't explain the spikes but I'll bet Sir Fred's pension that the actual a/c airspeed did not follow the graph!
Re that aileron trace: would have been much easier upside down!
Red - left aileron - up on the trace = down on the wing, blue - left aileron goes the other way. No reversal, logical because the roll control is Direct throughout from 15:45:15.
Training - on type rating training I am always very careful about stalling and direct law handling, there is a fair amount in the course.. but it was probably that doorman who wrote in the FCTM, and I quote...
The effectiveness of fly-by-wire architecture, and the existence of control laws, eliminate the need for upset recovery maneuvers to be trained on protected Airbus aircraft.
They might just ask him to rewrite that bit...
