common sim event?

i've never seen a double airspeed indicator failure the the sim sessions i have been in-and that is growing to be a significant number--

one side or the other and then the other pilot ends up flying it.

the 738's have the angle of attack probe, but i will have to dig into the books to see if there will be any clues after all the airspeed indicators have taken their annual leave together.

i seldom fly the flight directors on take off, though my company requires them to be on---i look through them and put the aircraft angle where the F/D's eventually come to later.

but in reality, it will be a handfull for sure.

puts more meaning on the 80 knot call out!!! surely if the sensors had been taped, we would see it at that point, if we were really "looking" rather than seeing what we want to see.
