Especially when describing what a Pitot tube is and what it does.
;-)

You mean the kind of pitot tube that produces two pressures to make
IAS? The same kind Henri Pitot used to measure water flow?

That would not be the kind the lunes of ram believe in.


John this is getting tiresome...

Gord, give up on tarver, now he thinks pitot tubes PRODUCE pressure.
Not only that they produce TWO pressures. The poor man is beyond help.

Moreover, he thinks they produce two pressures and produce airspeed as well.

The man's beyond hope, he is.

It is obvious he thinks a pitot tube produces pitot and static pressures, he
must mean a pitot-static tube, maybe he can also get free air temperature from
the tube too so he can get TAS.

OK, let's examine this theory.....no, let's not. Let's wait until he can prove
a single assertion he has made on this subject or any other claim he has ever
made. Maybe not, he would rather attack anyone who asks. What is the medical
term for someone who knows he's correct when provided with proof he is in error
yet provides no proof of his own?
