Monitoring local airflow in aircraft horizontal tail provides information for safe flight envelope expansion and data for early aerodynamic knowledge and model validation. rnThis work presents the installation, CFD pre-flight calibration, flight test calibration, results and benefits of local angle-of-attack and total pressure measurements through 20 static pressure ports and a kiel pitot.rn
