 |
|
I have older Safeair statics ports which protrude about a 1/32 inch out of the skin on my plane. (Newer ports form SafeAir are the same they simply beveled the edge of the port.)
I have a G900X system with Gretz pitot.
I have done GPS speed tests and find TAS is indicating 4 knots lower than actual.
I have read Tim's post on changing ports to improve the error.
Has anyone with similar system as mine found a similar error and been able to reduce or eliminate it?

I've seen pics from someone in Australia that fixed theirs with a "fence".
Pop rivets are 1 kt off on mine.
