To find True Airspeed (TAS), youll need to account for these effects. Some pitot tubes combine static and total pressure internally, sending only dynamic pressure to the ASI for a simpler design. Remember, the ASI measures airflow relative to the aircraft, so wind can affect readings. How Does the System Give Inputs to the Altimeter?
