Fastcruise - aspirated probes basically draw ambient air over the probe so that the probe gives a more accurate signal - not affected by being heated by strong sunlight or warm fuselage skin on the ground - If you operate 747 with aspirated probes you can sometimes see steam blowing out of them if humidity is high.
