An air data probe includes a probe head. The probe head defines a longitudinal axis with a forward tip and aft base and includes a wall tap port inlet defined in the probe head aft between the forward tip and the aft base. The wall tap port inlet opens on an angle relative to the longitudinal axis, wherein the wall tap port inlet has an elongated inlet perimeter configured to resist the formation of a meniscus, or otherwise reduce moisture induced pressure errors.
