An Air Canada Rouge Airbus A319-100, registration C-FYJH performing flight RV-1866/AC-1866 from Toronto,ON (Canada) to Orlando,FL (USA) with 142 people on board, was nearing the top of descent into Orlando, about 10 minutes prior to initiating the initial descent, when the crew received an ECAM Avionics smoke indication. The crew notified air traffic control and was cleared direct to Orlando. During the descent towards Orlando the weather radar became inoperative, flight and cabin crew searched for other signs of smoke but did not find any further trace of smoke.
