Abstract
An air data system for an aircraft includes a multi-function probe (MFP) and an inertial reference unit (IRU). The MFP is positioned to sense a pressure of airflow about an exterior of the aircraft. A first electronics channel of the MFP is electrically coupled to the IRU to generate air data parameter outputs based on the pressure sensed by the MFP and inertial data sensed by the IRU.
