Dynon skyview pitot tube

[Smoke Master]

I'm just ordering the RV-12 wing kit and wonder if Van's is going to offer the dynon pitot with AOA probe for the skyview panel. I would seem a shame to
have the AOA capabilty on the skyview display and not take advantage of it.
I do understand that it would involve two flexible lines probably from the wing
in order to make the system work. Since I don't plan on removing the wings
on a regular basis I don't think it would be a problem.
If Van's doesn't offer this option I can't imagine an inspector that would know the difference.

I cannot speak to the skills of inspectors, but it would be easy to do AFTER the inspection. Since I will not have the option of a spinner pitot with the Viking engine, I took advantage of my pitot relocation and bought a Dynon Pitot/AOA to mount on the wing. I never had an AOA before, but like you, did not want to waste that function of the Skyview.

Shirley, You jest!
You obviously don't know many inspectors.

If you do it before inspection, you probably better not hire Mel.
