" The AS probes and ADR after the brief " cold" operated PERFECTLY. It was a single occurrence of an intermittent failure well documented earlier."

How was a pilot to know that the AS and ADR were NOW back working PERFECTLY ?

A display of the three Pitot ASIs should help, but since the tape display of the change of altitude was not remarked on before " 10,000ft..." (on the CVR), perhaps some other way of readily comparing what may be three very different indicated speeds might be considered as an alternative to tape displays.
