I would question whether your pilot friend really wants a "true airspeed" display for landing. It is the indicated airspeed that is important in terms of the flight performance of an aircraft. You can get indicated airspeed by using a pitot head that measures dynamic air pressure and static air pressure, the difference between the two, calibrated correctly, gives you your airspeed.
