Flush air data system (FADS) have been successfully used on the nose tip of large manned/unmanned air vehicles instead of a traditional noseboom air data system. In order to integrate FADS with strapdown inertial navigation, high accuracy of angle of attack and sideslip is required. The estimated accuracy of angle of attack and sideslip in three types of FADS, which have different pressure ports layout, is compared using the nonlinear least squares theory. Evaluation function is provided to evaluate the accuracy of angle of attack and sideslip in different pressure ports layout. The results show that more sensors and radiation-type can provide high accuracy.

The air data system used by modern aircrafts is a soft hardware designed to measure, compute, and display the altitude-speed performances as well as other parameters such as air temperature, angles of attack and slip; and to provide to aircrew and consumers (various on-board systems) with this information. The speed and altitude are one of the most important flight parameters of an aircraft. The operating principle of modern onboard equipment for measuring the aircraft movement parameters while in flight is based on an aerometric method. This article deals with a method for increasing the accuracy and the reliability of aerodynamic angle-of-attack measurements.
