There must be a way to convert the airspeed indication to PSI to determine how much pressure the NACA is generating. In my ES the pitot line runs through the left wingtip. I don't know how stupid it would be to fly with no airspeed indicator on purpose. I know I wouldn't want to do it. But that might be an easy way to get an idea of the NACA pressure. Maybe there's someone out there with dual pitot tubes.
