Here's an idea: have secondary pitot tubes in the airframe that can be deployed like a RAT should the primaries be lost. At least it might provide sufficient time to recover and apply the correct...

A great question. The systems silenced it because the IAS fell below 60 kts for a time. This caused the FWC (Flight Warning Computer) to silence the STALL warning.

It should be that any time stall...

As far as can be determined, all three ADIs (Attitude Direction Indicators, or artificial horizons in layman's terms) was FULLY FUNCTIONAL.

As for pitching to +16 degrees of pitch at TOGA at FL380...

If the VSI is buried in the floor and the altimeter is spinning faster than a fair ground ride, then I think measuring AoA is pointless!

Still, it seems they missed it.
