Do the pitot probes on the NG automatically subtract static pressure?
How can it automatically subtract static pressure if it hasn't got the value?

I was taught that speed = dynamic (=pitot) minus static pressure.
You are correct.

I was answering your question (as it was asked). I think the other folks were trying to tell you not to think about these things when you do have this kind of problem.
