Read the passage below:
Aircraft pitot tubes collect ram air pressure to calculate airspeed during flight. Because ice accumulation can block the tube's forward inlet and cause erratic cockpit speed readings, these exterior probes contain internal electrical heating elements. Flight crews activate these heaters prior to takeoff in freezing or cloudy weather. When energized, the heating coil warms the metal casing, melting any existing ice crystals and preventing ice formation during flight through subzero moisture.
Statement: Pitot probes rely on built-in electrical components to heat their outer metal casing to prevent frozen moisture from blocking airflow measurements.
Cevap: Cevap
Cevap
True
The statement is true because the passage directly explains that internal electrical heating coils warm the metal casing to melt and prevent ice accumulation from blocking the probe inlet, which accurately corresponds to the assertion that built-in electrical components heat the outer casing to keep frozen moisture from obstructing airflow measurements.
