Interim Report #1, page 70:
On the date of the accident, the operator’s procedures mention that the following actions must be carried out from memory by the crew when they have any doubt concerning the reliability of a speed indication and when control of the flight is “affected dangerously”:
(Memory items IAS DOUTEUSE)
If conduct of the flight does not seem to be affected dangerously, the crew must apply the UNRELIABLE SPEED INDICATION / ADR CHECK procedure (see appendix 9).
Interim Report #2, page 53, study of 13 events of UAS:
With regard to crew reactions, the following points are notable:
 (...)
 Four crews did not identify an unreliable airspeed(12) situation (...)
For the cases studied, the recording of the flight parameters and the crew testimony do not suggest application of the memory items(13) in the unreliable airspeed procedure:
 (...)
 (...)
 There was no search for display of an attitude of 5°.
Is that intended as a 'slap on the wrist' or do they mean 'well done'?
