I don't see this statement from BEA - not even from an alleged "source close to the investigation". About as reliable as the media reports who was PF in which seat? The BEA report states that the "The inconsistency between the speeds displayed on the left side and on the ISIS lasted a little less than one minute" and 2 out of 3 means they agree - even though we don't know what RHS was displaying.

Maybe possible abnormal attitude law not triggered because of the cross-link between real and indicated airspeed and AoA - at high AoA IAS much lower than TAS, and low IAS suppresses use of AoA?
