Which consequence results when pitot tube icing obstructs flow?

A)Inaccurate airspeed indicator readings
B)Erroneous static pressure
C)Rudder control surface stalls
D)Engine flameout occurrences

💡 Explanation

Inaccurate airspeed occurs because pitot tube icing prevents dynamic pressure measurement following the Bernoulli equation; therefore, false readings result, rather than stalls or flameout issues related to different aircraft systems.
