IVP have a safety switch that dumps pressurization when speed is low to prevent landing with pressure. Of course next most distracting when the airspeed comes back so does pressure. 456A Greg Goodrich 500hrs ears still adjusting Sounds like a little pitot heat "on" could have prevented most of this. If you are going to fly high then pitot heat should be on your "before takeoff" checklist.
