One simple way to provide for an Alternate Static source is to run the primary static line to a pnuematic 3-port switch; have the primary port (primary switch position) feeding the instruments and the secondary port (secondary switch position) open to the cockpit. The common valves I've seen are brass, and I just didn't want the weight and look of brass; so I went looking. I found an all-aluminum-body 3-port toggle switch perfect for the above stated application and thought I'd pass it along: ARO valve #M251LS - G1130. I ordered mine from WW Grainger and their p/n is 3NB16. I received it yesterday and it is just what I was after.
