Your English is poor, and you question did not communicate what you were trying to ask, very well, at all. What type of digital airspeed meter are you trying to use? How do you mean that a fan would be used to help this to happen? Much more thought is needed, in asking your question. Be specific, and tell us more of what you were told. -- Jim in NC |

Yes, I have a very poor English.
Due to previous message, there was a person told me that there are some car fan refit their cars using digital airpseed indicator (numeric showing indication) in America. I told some Chinese car refit fans. First they don't believe it. Second they want to know how to do it. Here is the previous message: "There is an interesting exception to all of the above. Many home-built aircraft have a very basic set of flight instruments, often using altimeters and compasses intended for automobiles or small boats, along with an inexpensive Italian air speed indicator. The exception is the inclusion of a gyro horizon, usually vacuum-driven but sometimes electrical. This reflects the occasional need to descend through a cloud layer, during which the wings must be kept level." Luo Morgans 写道: wrote in message oups.com... Thank you so much.

What good would that be for a car? If you were going with the direction of a 20 mph wind, you would think you were going 60, and you were really going 80. The police would have you, then. Some very light aircraft we have are called ultralights, and according to our aviation authority, they are not really aircraft, at all, legally. They would be the only kink of flying vehicle that would have and inexpensive wind speed meter, if they have one, at all. They are not required, at all. Any registered aircraft will have to have a real airspeed indicator, with a tube facing into the wind, showing the increase of pressure that would convert to airspeed. Go to www.FFA.gov and look around at our regulations, for further information. I hope I have been some help. -- Jim in NC |

Six Aerocars were built and one was still flying (and presumably still road driven) as of 2004: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerocar_Aerocar |
