  • exemple reponse 151
    Due to its conception altimeter measures a Eas always lower than or equal to cas. eas cas corrected compressibility compressibility error always results in an incorrect a higher ias/cas being observed on airspeed indicator.

  • exemple reponse 152
    During descent total pressure probe of airspeed indicator becomes blocked in this case 1 ias becomes greater than cas2 ias becomes lower than cas3 maintaining ias constant vmo may be exceeded4 maintaining ias constant aircraft may stallthe combination regrouping all correct statements Eas always lower than or equal to cas. joangoris the only way to maintain a constant ias with a blocked pitot tube maintaining your altitude nothing to do with your throttle or tas no matter if you are near stall or near overspeed so i don't understand last two statements please help? thanks total pressure probe = pitot tube when it becomes blocked total pressure in capsule fixed (dynamic pressure + static) during descent static pressure from static port will increase compresses capsule causing indicated airspeed (ias) to decrease (your airspeed indicator becomes an altimeter!) when you read 'maintaining ias constant vmo may be exceede you must understand that you are in cockpit your speed decreasing so your action will be to accelerate your vmo may be exceeded.
