A nose cone overlay for determining air data quantities. The overlay is adapted for removable mounting to a conventional radome or nose cone of a typical aircraft. The overlay includes transducers for measuring data with respect to pressure from which quantities of the aircraft such as angles of attack, side slip are derived, which quantities are transmitted wirelessly to the interior of the cabin or a secondary location.

1. A nose cone overlay suitable for positioning on the nose cone of an aircraft for obtaining air data quantities, said nose cone having an interior and an exterior, comprising:a body for releaseable engagement with said nose cone, said body being independent of said interior of said nose cone, said body including: mounting means for releaseably mounting said body to said nose cone; a plurality of pressure transducers on said body for receiving air data quantities during flight of said aircraft; an electronic circuit connected to said pressure transducers on said body for processing received air data quantities during flight; a power source for supplying power to said electronic circuit; and a wireless transmitting means for transmitting received air data quantities to a central processing unit.
