Can we conclude that Vs1g computation was available, and therefore VLS was computed and displayed?
HN 39 & Lyman:

Once again an interesting question that goes to the crux of whether the FD might have coerced a momentary nose up input out of him a couple of knots above stall speed that put him 'over the edge' as the pitch attitude was nearly under control.

I don't know, but of course would like to. There's not a lot of discussion of intermittent availability of FD's as a result of intermittent ADR data available to the FMGEC in the documentation I have, nor the 'latched' ALT 2 display on the airspeed tape following recovery of an ADR.

On the surface, after recovering an ADR, it would appear that the capability to compute VLS is available, but would it be displayed, possibly...

I defer to CONF or A33Zab on that.
