Air Data Unit

I have added a paragraph about these, which are more compact than most ADC units. I have provided one link, this may want to be improved or changed to a different type of link.

I was slightly involved in the design of that product 15 years ago, but have no current interest or involvement. However it would be good to show some items from other manufacturers, if someone is able to do that?

Generally, the article needs some expansion, I think

Removed wrong statement about first air data computer

I removed the following sentence because it's obviously wrong; there were lots of patents before 1971, such as this 1954 patent. (Not to mention that claiming "first" based on a patent is WP:ORIGINAL.)

The first air data computer patented in the US was developed by John H. Andresen in February 1971.^[1]
