Pitot Tube Supports |
|
|
Tonight Finished my pitot tube supports within the wing. The last thing i had left to do was to fabricate an angle and fasten it directly adjacent to the pitot tube connections. Here i could secure the pitot and AOA lines to the angle with adel clamps and be certain the tube is secure within the wing. In all reality i could have probably looped some tubing from the wing root to the pitot tube with out ever fastening it down or passing through a guide hole. But with that it could have only been a matter of time before wear and tear depleted the line or interfered with the rigging. I am pretty satisfied with the system i devised for routing the lines through the wing as well as securing them in and around the bellcrank and pitot tube. Seems robust - shouldn't have to revisit this. |
