Hi OVERTALK,

You are right: you have missed my point. The point is that the characteristics of rain freezing in an air-pressure sensor is irrelevant to what might happen when waxy fuel enters a fuel sensor, line, valve or filter (see my 4th paragraph). Why did Unctuous raise the subject of the freezing problem in Ps3 and P3B sensors, when it is irrelevant to possible freezing in engine fuel sensors?

That does not necessarily mean that I dismiss his and others' arguments about possible ice or waxed fuel corrupting fuel data to the FADEC/EEc in either the GE90 or Trent engines. Like you, I am following the debate with interest, as indicated in my final paragraph.
