Scope
This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) covers the following basic types:
-
Type I - Pitot pressure, straight and L-shaped, electrically heated.
-
Type II - Pitot and static pressures, straight and L-shaped, electrically heated.
Rationale
This standard is being revised to: update the in-flight icing conditions Pitot and Pitot-static probes may experience in service; update certain design requirements so they apply to all probes meeting this standard; and update the environmental test requirements to include those of ED-14G/RTCA DO-160G as they apply to Pitot and Pitot-static probes.
AS8006A has been reaffirmed to comply with the SAE Five-Year Review policy.

* Redlines comparisons are available for those standards
listed in the Revision History that contain a radio button. A
redline comparison of the current version against a revision is
accomplished by selecting the radio button next to the standard and
then selecting 'compare'. At this time, Redline versions only exist
for some AMS standards. SAE will continue to add redline versioning
with ongoing updates to SAE MOBILUS.
