• Common Mode Hazards to Pitot-Static sensors - Mud Daubers - Icing - Volcanic Ash - Hail -Radomefailure -Birds - Pitot covers - Taped Static Ports - Maintenance errors (pneumatic plumbing)

• 787 new capabilities for protection - Synthetic airspeed - GPS altitude - Common Mode Monitor

• Calculated from angle of attack and inertial data - AOA – voted dual sensors plus inertial data

- Accurate Coefficient of Lift (CL) - Airplane Mass from FMC - Validated after

• Algorithm developed for enhanced stall protection

• Avoid displaying data known to be bad

- Loss of valid voted VCAS = Display synthetic airspeed VSYN

- Loss of valid voted PSTATIC = Display GPS altitude
