A portion of thread from different news grope:
loss of a 757 a few years ago in which clogged pitot tubes caused bad overspeed warnings; the Turkish crew pulled back the power and stalled and crashed. It was later determined that the A/C had sat for a month and insects had gotten into uncovered pitot tubes. With aircraft equipped with GPS that shows your true speed, can you fly by it when pitot tube is down? Emilio. |
