(Is it only me?)

Since I kind of got the electrical problem resolved, I'm off flying
the heavies again.

Up at FL270 suddenly the IAS goes to 0 and the auto-throttle goes
nuts.

Quickly turning off the AT, I keep the plane flying.

Turn on the "carb heat" but that isn't really the problem.

It is the pito heat.

But there is no "pito heat" function.

Sheesh. :-/

But is it the pito tube freezing anyway?

I don't want to make it an "easy peasy" plane to fly, I like the
realism, but that is somewhat..... unbelievable.

Thanks in advance.
