Dynon Skyview Airspeed Calibration... 
      
      
      Dear Listers,
      
      I've been flying the new 10" Dynon Skyview in the RV-6 for a few weeks now and
      it seems like the airspeed is reading maybe 10mph fast.  The GS always reads 10mph
      or more slower than the True airspeed, no matter which way I fly with respect
      to the current wind.  Looking through the configuration options on the Skyview,
      I'm not seeing parameters to calibrate the airspeed.  If the airspeed were
      *slow* compared to the GS, I could envision making adjustments to the Pitot
      tube to get it in better alignment with slipstream.  But *fast* is a head scratcher.
      If there's no electronic configuration parameters to adjust, what do
      you do?  Are there Pitot line "attenuators" like for RF in coax? ;-)
      
      Matt
