Remember that the root cause of the anomalies at Perpignan were damaged static ports caused by improper maintenance procedures during cleaning. The level of systems issues caused by loss of valid static information is considerably more severe than those caused by loss of pitot tube data (e.g. comparison of Birgenair 301 [pitot] to Aeroperu 603 [static]).
