    Default Pitot Tubes.

    If I am going with an all glass panel, is the pitot tube still needed? Just curious. I am still going to build it in; but??? Thanks for the input.

    Yes. The glass units still need pitot-ram and static sources.

    Hi: Tom from Coeur dAlene. Saw your post. Just finished putting Dynon Skyview in my kitfox under construction. Would like to come over and see your project. Advise a convenient time and I'll drive over from CDAL.

    Invitation is also extended to come down to the hanger at Carlin Bay and see my project.

    I am in the process of installing my pitot set up. I have the pitot tube, but can't find the tube to connect the tubing inside the wing. Do I just cut a small length off the pitot tube or do I need to find a 1/4" aluminum tube from somewhere. Also, I see posts about AOA pitot setups-what is that? They sure look nice. Thanks for your help.
