DESCRIPTION
7.12. PITOT AND STATIC PRESSURE SYSTEMS
The pitot pressure is measured on the leading edge of a calibrated probe
below the left wing. The static pressure is measured by the same probe
using two holes in the lower edge and rear edge of the probe. For protection
against water and humidity, water sumps are installed within the line. These
water sumps are accessible beneath the left seat shell.
The error of the static pressure system is small enough to be neglected for
the measuring of the altitude. For the error of the airspeed indicating system
refer to Chapter 5.
The pitot static pressure probe should be protected whenever the aircraft is
parked to prevent contamination and subsequent malfunction of the aircraft
systems relying on its proper functioning.
7.13. STALL WARNING SYSTEM
When the airspeed drops below 1.1 times the stall speed, a horn sounds in
the left instrument panel. The horn grows louder as the speed approaches
the stall speed. The horn is activated by suction on a hose that leads from a
hole in the leading edge of the left wing to the horn. The hole is marked by a
red circle.
The stall warning hole should be plugged whenever the aircraft is parked to
prevent contamination and subsequent malfunction of the stall warning
system.
7.14. AVIONICS
The center of the instrument panel contains the radio and navigation
equipment. The microphone key for the radio is installed in the control stick.
There are two connectors for headsets on the backrest of the seat.
Operating instructions for individual avionics equipment should be taken
from the manuals of the respective manufacturers.
