Thanks DJ77. The only reason I brought this up is to explain why he pulled the nose up. Your data confirms that they had an overspeed warning due to the climb with frozen pitot tubes causing the overspeed warning when static pressure reduced to the lower pressure.

Doesn't this explain how this accident happened the way it did? The PF started a climb when the AP disconnected, got an overspeed and pulled up into a deep stall.
And how do you explain TOGA in an overspeed?
Just curious.
