PS: Below 60 knots I imagine the stall warning is inhibited because there is not enough airflow over the AoA vane to make it accurate and trustworthy.
Well they were descending, stalled at ~120 Knots with the AOA sensors exposed to the airflow, so the sensors should have been providing useful info. Can anyone explain therefore the logic in inhibiting the stall warning with no weight on wheels? Maybe not the first hole in the cheese....
