Default Whew - ASI died in flight

I made sure that every one of my students learned to land without an
airspeed indicator before I signed them off for solo. Pitch attitude and
power setting are all you need...the airspeed indicator is nice, but (except
for those nasty regulations), not a requirement for safe flight.

How about a tach needle that begins to spin at engine RPM's. Like so
fast you cant see the needle. No big problem, just fly the rest of the
trip by feel unless its a new plane you haven't flown before

LOL!
I have had that happen also.
Started making a weird noise and then just started roaming.
