Abstract
A method providing fault isolation, in an air data system which uses artificial intelligence to generate an air data parameter, includes generating the air data parameter as a function of a plurality of measured values such as static pressures. Then, estimates of each of the plurality of measured values is generated as a function of the generated air data parameter. Each measured value can then be compared to its corresponding estimate to determine if a difference between the measured value and its corresponding estimate exceeds a threshold and therefore indicates a fault in a device which provides the measured value.
