RECENT tendencies in the design and operating conditions of aircraft have laid increasing emphasis on the short-comings of the generally accepted pitot-static method of measuring flight speed. The routine use of air navigation over long distances has spread widely during the past ten years, and, as a result of the greater distances involved, the percentage error in measured flight speed which can be tolerated has become smaller. This un-satisfactory position was not until quite recently relieved by any very clear appreciation of the errors involved in fitting a pitot-static head in any given position on an aircraft.
