How is outside air temperature measured/calculated in most modern jet aircraft?
A. Outside air temperature is measured directly from the total air temperature probes.
B. Outside air temperature is measured directly from the static air temperature probes.
C. Outside air temperature is calculated based on actual ram air temperature (also known as total air temperature) and the standard atmospheric temperature lapse rate.
D. Outside air temperature is calculated by directly measuring ram air temperature (also known as total air temperature) then subtracting a correction for Mach number.
