 Posted: Fri Dec 22, 2006 9:14 am Post subject: Pitot cover for Dynon Pitot Tube ? |
 |
|
I'm using a latex glove to keep the bugs and what have you out
of my Dynon pitot - its just not becoming, looks vaguely like a
medical mistake.
Has anyone figured out which of the various covers available
(Cessna, Dornier, Beechcraft ...) fit over the Dynon pitot ?

I've seen some use a bright colored tennis ball to cover the pitot....

LOL!!!
Now you've got me thinking - there could be quite a few
variations on that theme that might serve the purpose ...
there has to be a business opportunity there - effigies of one's
least favorite politicians etc., etc., ...

It caught quite a few stares and comments. [Shocked]

There is a C-195 near me that for the past 15 or so years has used a stuffed
DUCK on the pitot tube for a cover. Looks like the duck was flying and got
it from behind.
