Default 2 1/4" airspeed, altimeter ... leaks?

Hi All,

Read a while ago about issue with 2 1/4" airspeed (it may have been the altimeter) whereby the instrument was not totally sealed, and thus caused a leak in the static system.

Anybody can find those links for me or have some info? I've had no luck with the search.

I basically want backup instruments with my Dynon, and am running out of space on my panel. My preference is 3 1/8" altimeter (cheaper, baro adjust) and 2 1/4" airspeed.

Thanks.

Red face Nevermind...

Found what I was looking for. It was actually a thread on another instrument, the Trutrak ADI Pilot II, which caused a leak in the static system.

Sorry about the previous misleading post.
