There is the question. I'm in a mood today. Have you flown your
favorite aircraft with zero or near zero indicated airspeed?


I haven't done it, but flying through some icing with the pitot heat off
should do the trick.

So... what's your answer?

If the pitot and weep hole ice over, the airspeed will not change until you
change altitude.
