Pitot Tube Protector 3/16 O.D.
Misfit piece of crap, Sealing part of flapper hangs 1/4 inch below pitot tube, manufacturers not suppliers haven’t checked for quality control at all, A blind person can feel it won’t work, Useless P.O.S!!
Pitot Tube Protector 3/16 O.D.
Cheap piece of crap!
Pitot Tube Protector 3/16 O.D.
Cheaply made, the flap does not even cover the hole in the pitot , Nor will the nut tighen up enough to keep from moving it around with your fingers. I bent the small door some to try make it aline with the pitot hole, but then it still has issues with the door alinement. That defeats the purpose .
