If anybody comes across breathless stories today about confused pilots referring to manuals from CVR Transcripts, it is very likely it’s a misunderstanding from non-aviation journalists
If the crew thought they had unreliable airspeed, they would be expected to have the QRH out, which contains all the emergency checklists. However “pilots desperately hunting for clues in manuals” fits a narrative better than “Pilots Run QRH drill” </rant>
