The reference you mentioned is the TAM incident. What I referred to in the BEA Final Report was in Appendix 6, Page 1.
Airbus "Unreliable Speed Indication" Procedure, A330 Air France FCOM:
During this failure identification time, since the flight control laws may be affected, it is recommended to maneuver the aircraft with care until the ADR (s) is (are) switched off.
Guess the TAM folks proved the Air France FCOM wrong?

I am sorry Sir, that I gave you credit for something that didn't deserve credit. I was just going by your previous information (Bio) that very recently changed including your location...
