I play some by ear (tough on the neck) I've always liked the power and versatility, and fascinated by the electrical and mechanical complexity of the pipe organ.
The standard measurement of static wind pressure for a pipe organ is the displacement of water in a U shaped tube. (A very old method of measurement) Typical organs use 3 to 7 inches of wind. This organ uses several pressures.

How is 100" a measure of wind? If you're talking about air flow, sum of cross section area would be more relevant.
