Except that there is an OEB out to deal with just this particular scenario and has been drummed into every single Airbus pilot repeatedly for the last few months. In just such a situation the memory item is simply to switch off two ADR's. I find it highly unlikely that this crew were not aware of something so obvious.

Plus this in no way explains the lack of comms from the crew.

I don't know why a lot of people are so desperate to pin this on the AoA vanes and erroneous alpha prot activation. Perhaps it is the cause but, for the reason stated, plus the aircraft being in the cruise and outside any weather I'd be very surprised indeed.
