This could be done with a set of holes, chord-wise around the LE that

projects I've been working on and easily done with about $400 worth of
parts. Accutate, temperature compensated, pressure sensors are
expensive.


Would a series of holes provide any more information than two holes?
What kind of pressure differentials would be involved?
