Take if for what it is, but am curious if any of the experts might chime in to the plausibility of the failure mode talked about?
The thread talks about a probe design issue that manifests itself under certain flight conditions.

If that was the case, would we not see it on random Max aircraft at random intervals, rather than on the same (Lion Air) aircraft on four consecutive sectors?
