GB;
I'm still perplexed by the TCAS Fail report in the list. ATC/TCAS use altitude, not airspeed. The other incidents did not mention loss of altitude display. In one instance, it was noted the altitude indicated a drop of 300 feet, meaning the ADR was still outputting valid altitude calculation, but perhaps without airspeed trim.
This may help:
