The flight tests did not go beyond approach to stall. The presenters opined that recovery from the developed stall is out of the envelope and that recovery is highly doubtful, even with proper actions. i.e. certification does NOT require recovery from a developed stall.
Until they passed 10,000 ft. there appears to have been no comment on their direction of travel... DOWN.

This was indicated (and recorded). But it was not NOTICED by the pilots.

The presentation of this information might be improved.
Get the feeling that BEA doesn't want to dwell to much on areas which could be the basis of claims against Airbus.
