Had a weird intermittent fault on a G1000 system last month that only showed up above 10,000 feet.

Wonder if it's a pressure sensor acting up at altitude.

Altitude bugs are the worst, had a similar gremlin in a 172 that would knock out the air data computer right around eight thousand. Took three flights to even get it to show up for the mechanic. Turned out to be a tiny crack in a static line that only opened up when it got real cold.

Ugh, that sounds so annoying to track down. My buddy had a weird one where his transponder would just quit every time he flew near this one cell tower. They finally found a loose antenna connection that only shook loose at a certain frequency.
