Was just wondering if anyone has ever had a IAS problem with a Piper Pitot Blade (static port is actually in the blade itself)? The blade is mounted at the pitot tube mount site on an RV8. In flight the IAS is exactly 20 KIAS slower than the GPS indications (no wind of course). The Aircraft is stalling at 32 KIAS when that number should be 52 KIAS. The GPS numbers are constant with ATC ground read outs. Anyone have a thought? Cheers, Bob
