Pretend you are driving 55 mph down highway and you notice a bug flying around in your car is the bug flying at 55 mph more than 55 mph or less than 55 mph?

Relative to your car, the bug is travelling at whatever speed the bug normally flies at; this would almost certainly be less than 55mph. Relative to the road, the bug is travelling at 55mph, plus whatever its speed inside the car is: * If the bug were moving from front to back (of the car), it is travelling at slightly less than 55mph; * if moving from back to front, it is moving at slightly more; * if travelling side to side, it is also traveling at slightly more than 55mph - vector addition of velocities shows this; * if staying still inside the car, it is travelling at 55mph.

How is the air pressure around a tree different from the air pressure around a plane?
Trees grow from the ground. The ground is often lower than a plane. If the plane is lower than the ground, the passengers and crew are having a very bad day. Since the typical plane that is flying is flying higher than the trees in the vicinity, it is safe to conjecture that the air pressure around a typical tree is higher than the air pressure around a typical plane flying in the vicinity of those trees.
