Pitot line

[Ralph Baker]

Hi Dave,
We used the 1/4" Nylo Seal tubing and fittings from Aircraft Spruce. It
went together well and if you lay it out with Tees, Els the installation
is quite straightforward. The fittings screw together and onto the
instuments as well. The only bind is at the static ports and pitot
where you have to cobble something with bits of other tubing to suit. I
would suggest the small plastic reservoirs just inside each static port
and at an accessible low point in the pitot line to collect any stray
moisture. I worried about this a lot more than it was worth.

Sorry to come in so late on the pitot thing, but yes, the Nylo Seal tubing
and fittings work
very well. The best par is that they can be had at our local hydraulics shop
too.
