--> RV9-List message posted by: "Douglas A. Fischer" <dfischer@iserv.net>
A question for all you IFR guys. I plan to build my RV-9A for IFR and to use two
fuselage static ports (linked so as to average out any slip error). My question
is one of redundancy. Is there a need with this arrangement to have yet
a third port for redundancy? A heated pitot is the way I'm thinking (at least
it would be a source that wouldn't ice over). What are the odds of both fuselage
ports freezing or clogging at the same time since if one did, the other
would be the alternate? Has it happened to anyone? I'm wondering if the price
delta of $200 between with and without static in the pitot is worth it or if
in the very rare instance I can just break the VSI glass. Any input would be
greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Do not archive
This is so true, also Matthew I found that even though it may not appear to
destroy them a hole or two will appear at any wear point very quickly. I
got a box of 100 surgical gloves from the pharmacy at QFC, for $3.25 a box,
beleive it or not! They were about 10 times better than the bag of 10 for
1.50 from Lowes or were ever.

Guys:
I would use a version of "liquid gloves" below the plastic ones you're
talking about. This is especially true if you're using MEK and/or other
similar chemicals!
