PJ2, you are right, I am mixing up two cases:
- the Cayenne incident (A340 A/THR increasing thrust reacting to a wind drop):

- the interrupted go-around (A320 AoA laws reacting to turbulence and updrafts):

so I was wrong in saying that the AoA protection law was triggered by declining airspeeds (due to a wind drop) in this case, this was the result of up/down wind gusts.
