Sorry for being off topic.
I can't find the manuals on LINK. Were they moved?

This is very close to the OEB that came out a few years ago. I believe that one was more towards blocked pitot tubes because it is now incorporated into the unreliable airspeed checklist. Essentially, you are doing the same in both procedures. In normal law the airplane's protections might get you into trouble with frozen AOA vanes (or blocked pitot tubes). So turn off two ADRs and presto you're in alternate law without those protections and should be able to fly out of the situation.
For extra points.......check out your cockpit pictorial and find the alternate PFD display for aircraft 607NK and subsequent (maybe 605 and subsequent). What's the BUSS and when would it come up?

Anyone else notice the newer Sharklet airplanes (noticed in 631) the strobes aren't nearly as distracting at night

Of course, this mode won't do much for you with frozen AOA vanes...

605 and beyond. It's called "AOA mode" and is just that, a red/green/red fast/slow indicator and GPS altitude. Could save your ass with unreliable airspeed; easiest way to get there is turn all three ADR PBs off.

I thought the same thing, but figured I was just crazy. Maybe Airbus came up with, or could come up with a modified lens that would re-direct the flashy thing elsewhere.
