Yes, those static ports are pretty unreliable! :-)


Pitot tubes are unreliable in comparason to a static port/pitot port
combination.

Do you have trouble reading, Whiting?



No, you have trouble writing things that make sense. What is unreliable
about a pitot tube? The heater is likely the least reliable part.
Which airplane(s) have pitot ports? I don't think I've seen one. What
makes them more reliable?
