This paper presents a Reliability and Maintainability approach to optimize the pitot tubes on any aircraft. For the pilot to be able to obtain precise numbers, the Pitot static system must be present and functioning properly. Without it, the pilot won't be able to make the right choice. Ice accumulation in flight poses a very serious risk to aviation safety. Failures and obstructions in the pitot-static system can have grave repercussions. Different reliability and maintainability methods will be used to improve the pitot tube's trustworthiness.
