10. PITOT-STATIC PRESSURE SYSTEMS
The P-Mentor airspeed/altitude indicating systems are connected with a Pitot-Static
system based on a total pressure/Pitot probe (simple Pitot tube, heated for icing
protection) mounted on left wing strut and two static pressure ports connected in
parallel and located on left and right side of fuselage. Flexible hoses connect total
pressure and static ports to primary analogue instruments, anemometer and
altimeter. Garmin G3Xs Touch and standby GI-275 unit are connected to both static
and total pressure lines providing both airspeed and altitude information.
