An air data module is provided that is relatively small, lightweight, low cost, uses relatively low power, and is relatively easy to install, test, and maintain. The air data module includes a housing that is adapted to be mounted to an external surface of an aircraft, and includes at least a sensor compartment and an interface electronics compartment formed therein. A pitot-static probe is coupled to the housing and extends therefrom, and has a static pressure passageway that is in fluid communication with the sensor compartment. A plurality of static pressure ports are formed in the pitot-static probe and are in fluid communication with the static pressure passageway. A pitot pressure inlet port is formed in a distal end of the pitot-static probe. A static pressure sensor and a differential impact or absolute pitot pressure sensor, for example, may be mounted within the module and used to sense static pressure and impact or pitot pressure, respectively. The disclosed configuration makes the module less sensitive to a relatively high pressure pulse.
