Tracy, this is just such a way cool idea!!  It
wouldn't take much work at all to run a bunch of
temporary 1/4" ID platic tubes to points all over
the plane and cowl, with the ends all terminating in
a nice row on a block of wood.  With a brass insert
fitted to a piece of tube coming out of the AI that
would allow the AI to be switched between any of the
various ends, a survey of relative pressure across
and within the entire ship can be made in a single
flight.
