Trouble in the Maddog

Descending in NY for KLGA and this happens. Displays are dead. Doesn't look good.
Happened not once but twice - both time in descent. The Maddog models icing and I suspect that was the culprit -- right after my dumb co-pilot (who will remain nameless) for not having the ice protection and fuel heaters on. Going to keep a closer eye on him next time.

UPDATE. Apparently this is a known issue affecting many users flying different aircraft online - with vPilot and JoinFS. Problem has to do with model matching to Carenado and Alabeo aircraft. The problem is NOT the Maddog.
There is a workaround for vPilot: 1) In vPilot Settings for Model Matching, be sure you do not have a Carenado or Alabeo a/c as the Default Model. 2) Under Model Matching select Advanced and expand the SimObjects\Airplanes. Clear the check mark from all Carenado and Alabeo a/c you see. Hit the Apply button. Close vPilot and restart. If you install new or change (add/remove) a/c and possibly liveries in your sim, vPilot will rescan all the a/c and put the check marks back that you had previously removed from the Carenado and Alabeo a/c. You'll need to repeat step 2.
