On an aircraft with fly-by-wire, which consequence results when a pitot tube freezes?

💡 Explanation

Freezing blocks the pitot tube, disrupting dynamic pressure readings. This, via erroneous data feed into the flight computer control system (airspeed indication impacting flight controls), leads to incorrect control surface actuation, because the flight computer operates on corrupt airspeed data; therefore control becomes difficult, rather than directly causing engine or hydraulic problems.
