3.8.4. Failure of the static and pitot pressure systems
The failure of the flight and navigation instruments might be caused by
leakage or constriction of the pipes of the static or pitot pressure
systems.
In case of failure of the static or pitot pressure system, the landing
approach is to be performed with flight parameters monitored by the
tachometer and other correctly working flight and navigational
instruments only. On ground, water sediment is to be removed from the
systems, and the sensors of static and pitot pressure checked to be
clean and not constricted. Have the systems checked for leakage.
3.8.5. Failure of balancing tab control system of slab tail
In case of failure of the balancing tab control system of the slab tail in
flight, if the aeroplane becomes “tail heavy” (the nose rises), the airspeed
is to be reduced to read about IAS = 112 km/h / 70 mph / 60 kts to
reduce the force on the control stick
