Airbuses have a telemetry system called ACARS, for Aircraft Communication Addressing and Reporting System, which transmits the same data that is recorded on the aircraft's black box. ACARS reported the pitot-static system had failed.

On July 2, the French equivalent to the National Transportation Safety Board reports the plane was intact when it hit the water. Plus, there's a history of pitot tube problems on these planes. So they're working on what they think the actual problem is.
