Couple of questions:
1. For the Garmin Pitot, would I use push fittings for the tubing coming off the aluminum tubing or flare the tubing and use Al nut fittings? Any reason that I can't use tubing push-to-push fittings to convert from Al tubing to plastic. Does this make sense?
2. Do you think that it matters if one uses the expensive push fittings for 1/4" tubing from stein air (see below) or cheaper ones from another source (like amazon)? I plan to use to connect to the G5 and AHRS. I have a bunch that came with the static port system, but all are 90 degree elbows with 1/8" NPT to 1/4" tubing. Kinda hard to put on with other things in the way.
