    From: "John Wighton" <john@wighton.net>
    The alternate static source when switched with this type of (2 way switch) will supplement the original static source - not replace it. A 3-way switch which selects from either Source A or Source B seems to be a requirement for some aircraft (l know this may not be applicable to the LAA). Looking at the nice diagrams in FAA AMT Vol2 Figure 10-25 shows a 3-way switch. See attachment. Is a 2-way switch acceptable? -------- John Wighton Europa XS trigear G-IPOD Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=478188#478188 Attachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/2018_02_22_115451_173.jpg

    Hello I am interested in "Original rear tail wheel assembly including tyre and tube, never fitted" because I have still the classic tail wheel and I am interested to convert to XS version. Please offer with a part list. Best regards -- Ruedi Vogel Wiesenweg 6 CH-3380 Wangen a.A. Switzerland

    Hi Ruedi I have all of the XS tail wheel assembly parts, unused and never fitted. I converted to tri-gear during the build. This includes the tyre, tube, tailwheel arm, mounting bits, springs, etc. and I also have the speed kit fairing. If you are interested I will put together a parts list of the items I have. Send me a PM or use the email below. -------- Regards Kelv Weston Kit 497 kelv@kdweston.biz Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=478200#478200

The alternate static is cabin air from behind the Control Panel, to be used if the original source (under wing static) becomes blocked. -------- Bob Dawson XS TG || 912 ULS || G-NHRJ Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=478203#478203 Attachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/static_pitot_aoa_plumbing_873.pdf
