Installing the static ports (Dynon) was next on my list.
All was well, I had the port locations marked on both sides of the fuselage, researched wether I was going to use the Dynon ports or order the Van's rivets (Dynon) and was ready to drill the holes.
Annnnnd.... then I came across Van's Static Port Kit instructions.
The -7 plans show the static port location just ahead of bulkhead F-708. The Kit instruction show the static ports just ahead of bulkhead F-707.
Now, if push comes to shove...I'll install the ports where the -7 plans indicate. BUT, The kit instruction have their appeal due to the ports and tubing being one bulkhead further forward and I like that...less tubing, easier access...
I know this topic has been discussed almost as much as primer but I haven't seen any discussions on the merits of being at one bulkhead or the other.
Plans location with the kit location added.
The Static Kit instructions.
What do you think??
