Air orbital sanders need a very big compressor. We use electric at work instead. All our painters swear by them. Not cheap
though.http://www.mirkadustfreesanding.co.uk/product.html

i run mine off a 3hp compressor no problem...
if your about to sand and paint a bus/ coach then you must have a manly compressor.. not one of those 50 quid things from wolf or s.i.p..

I'd bet it's not what I'd consider big, but there again I've worked with *BIG* compressors - biggest was rated 49 bar inlet
pressure, 69 bar outlet, 1,200,000 Nm3/hr and was driven by a 24,000 hp gas turbine! The smallest I've worked with was driven by a 330kW motor!
