A pressure sensor assembly for simultaneously providing a time-resolved total pressure measurement and steady state flow angles of an airflow. The assembly includes an outer shroud having a front face, a rear face and a central bore having a wall. A dynamic absolute pressure sensor is positioned within the bore and provides a time-resolved total airflow pressure measurement. First and second spaced apart static pressure ports extend from the front face of the shroud to the rear face of the shroud and adjacent to the bore. The pressure ports provide a pressure that can be measured by pressure probes, where a combination of the time-resolved total pressure measurement and pressure measurements from the probes provides a steady state flow angle of the airflow.
