Cool

Hi,

DW
As yet, we don't know which model was fitted to the aircraft in this incident, but it appears that the EAD is causing a review of this new design and a fix should be in the works.
Long ago (you made ​​yourself note) probes are prone to icing or blocking by ice particles and since that time there has been no suitable solution found and I think it will not change until prohibit aircraft from flying in icing environments or equip each sensor with a flamethrower
