13.4.2 Static Ports
A dual static port is mounted on either side of the forward fuselage. Static air
pressure is transmitted to the Air Data Computers, where it is processed and
provided to the PFDs for display. This information is also used by the FADECs, and
processed by the ACS. The static ports are heated by dual internal heating elements
that provide anti-ice protection.

13.4.3 Pitot / Static
An independent pitot/static probe provides information directly to the ACS for display
on the MFD ADI. Information provided by this probe may also be used by the pilot in
the event of a system abnormality or a disagreement between the primary probes.
