Vario and airspeed gauge freeze


Recommended Posts

Hi,
why the vario and airspeed gauge freeze in high level when pitot heat is on? Can I do something against it? 
thx
Yes, I encountered this the other day. All air gauges froze, so I was thinking maybe a static vent froze. To clear it and get the gauges back, you have to descend into warmer air.

Cheers!

Pitot heating, yes, but static vent has no heating, usually. Wouldn't know how that froze in a sim, anyway.
