SWGS201 Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Hi all, significant bug- during decent into severe icing conditions all airspeed indicators freeze up- Captain, Standby and Copilot- alternate source does not fix the problem. All heat and anti-ice on. Only solution was to climb above the icing and the indicators come back alive. Please look into as this makes landing in icing conditions impossible.

Old bug in MSFS icing engine. When you see icing conditions on ecam turn on engine anti ice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're correct in that it has to do with broken MSFS ice model but OP's issue is not related to engine anti-ice its the Pitot tube heat that can't handle the issue which in return gives bad airspeed data. So OP, if this ever happens and you have the pitot tube heat on then you can disable anti ice effect in MSFS assistance settings to recover from this issue. (keep in mind though a310 is pretty old and if the conditions are severe enough the real Pitot tube would probably also fail.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWGS201 Posted November 16, 2022 Author Share Posted November 16, 2022 Hi all - correct it is the pitot tubes that iceded up- as I wrote all anti-icing systems were engaged on descent as per SOP. Thanks for the work around on the MSFS icing effects! It still is a bug on the A310 that should be fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
