Pitot Tube assembly.

Pitot Tubes, especially the heated verity are tremendously expensive. Once again, I was able to be fortunate enough to locate a slightly used one and it only set me back a grand total of 15 US dollars. That s right. It pays to have a friend that has his own repair and inspection FBO.

the plans called for a crude system of using a section of aluminum tubing that was to protrude the leading edge and that didn’t sit well with me so I went on the hunt for an alternative and this is what I came up with.
