which instrument(s) will become inoperative if the static vents become clogged? A) Airspeed indicator only. B) Altimeter only. C) Airspeed indicator, altimeter and vertical speed indicator. - C) Airspeed indicator, altimeter and vertical speed indicator. The pitot static system is a source of air pressure for the operation of the altimeter, airspeed indicator, and vertical speed indicator. Thus if the static vents become clogged, all these instruments will be affected. In the Northern He...
