Wow. This means that currently, there are no specific training session involving IAS failures ? Is it specific to Air France ? Haven't we had Pitots problems, corrupted IAS and confusing behaviours of the automated systems for several decenies now ? and several incidents/accidents due to these corrupted airspeeds ?
