A single pitot/static is indeed a single point failure.  I have two
fully independent pitot and static systems: a pitot on each wingtip and
two static ports on each side of the fuselage.  The AoA is only on one
line, but at least I would have the air speed on the other gauges. =20

  But I have an objection to the wing port system, and that is that it
is hooked into the existing pitot static system, =20
  This means that you don't have any redundancy. If something happens to
the pitot static system, or the airspeed pitot, your AOA won't work
either.=20
