I'm hoping to get my new Altrak installed in the -8 this week, and have a very specific question for folks who are flying with one. Did you plumb the static source in to your static system, or just leave it open to the cabin? Since it is just a "relative" system (it doesn't know or care what the altitude is, just whether or not is is changing...), I'm inclined to think it doesn't make a difference. If I was opening and closing the canopy in flight, maybe - but I ain't gonna try that! So is anyone running it without plumbing, and how does it work?
Reason to ask? I hate to break into a certified static system that has no leaks....
