Aviation-interested SLF here with a few question:

So if I understand correctly the AP was disengaged - but do we know why?

Airspeed indicators malfunctioned but apparently only briefly - so why did that not change the law back when they came online again? Because they already stalled?

And is there no warning or indication to the crew that the law has changed?

And why is there in certain laws - if I understand correctly no stall warning - if it is something so essential?

And shouldn't a vertical airspeed have indicated the pilots that they are actually falling out of the sky and prevented them as long as they still had altitude from pulling back?

Thanks much
