What would realistic ranges be for air pressure measured by a differential sensor during flight ?

At what realistic speed , including a head wind of what speed ?

Looking for alternative differential pressure sensor, what would the ideal range be in kPa / psi ?

Regards

@tom

Should really have looked that up myself :)

So a max 2 kPa sensor should be good up to the 200 km/hr range at sea level. What is a simple explanation for the increase in pressure not being linear to the increase in speed (v^2 ) ?
