12.2.1
Pitot
–static system
The Pitot tube to sense total pressure is located under right wing. The total pressure is sensed
through the hole in the pitot
–tube face. Static pressure ports are located on both sides of the
fuselage, at the tail. Pressure distribution to individual instruments is performed by means of
flexible plastic hoses.
Static pressure is lead to the altimeter (ALT), airspeed indicator (ASI), vertical speed indicator
(VSI), and to the altitude encoder. The total pressure is connected just to the ASI.
