How is range calculated by a DME?
Measuring the time interval between the interrogation and the response converted to range
Where are the rack hot sensors located

What is Bernoulli's Principal and equation
An increase of dynamic pressure will bring about a decrease in static pressure
Pressure total = pressure static + pressure dynamic
