← TechnologyWhich consequence results when bird remains block pitot-static system inlets in flight?
A)Incorrect airspeed indication appears✓
B)Engine temperature rises excessively fast
C)Fuel consumption decreases gradually
D)Electrical power output quickly diminishes
💡 Explanation
Erroneous airspeed occurs because **pressure blockage** prevents accurate dynamic and static pressure measurement used by the airspeed indicator; therefore, the airspeed shown is an inaccurate reading, rather than directly causing temperature or power problems through drag changes.
