Does anyone have a diagram on how to route the pitot line out of the wing root and to the instrument panel on a Classic IV? It is not shown in my manual.

I ran mine out of the rear spar tube, through, then along the butt
rib, and finally down along the front side of the left windshield
post. I used the screws that hold the windshield in place to also
hold "C" clips, into which I placed the pitot tube line. Just be sure
that the line is placed close to the bolt that holds the rear spar to
the fuselage, so that it won't interfere when/ if you need to fold
the wings.

Dick,
On my first build, I routed it down the aft door post then under the side of the seat then up the foeward door post to the panel.
Behind the panel, I used a carbon fiber arrow blank as a stiffener which was tie wrapped to the side tubing. I ran all tubing and wiring behind the panel tied to this arrow blank to try to elimiate the birds nest look back there. I will likely do it again on my current Model IV projecyt.
