Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 91, section 91.411, requires this test, as well as tests on the pitot-static system and on the automatic pressure altitude reporting system. The certified airframe or A&P mechanic is not qualified ... certified repair station. 14 CFR part 43, Appendix E details the requirements for these tests. Pitot-Static System Maintenance & Tests Water trapped in a pitot static system may cause inaccurate or intermittent indications on the pitot-static flight instruments. This…
- Chapter 10: Aircraft Systems › Pitot-Static Systems › Pitot Tubes & Static Vents
Pitot-Static Systems Some of the most important flight instruments derive their indications from measuring air pressure. Gathering and distributing various air pressures for flight instrumentation is the function of the pitot-static system. Pitot Tubes & Static Vents On simple ... aircraft, this may consist of a pitot-static system head or pitot tube with impact and static air pressure ports and leak-free tubing connecting these air pressure pick up points to the instruments that require the air for their…

downstream of the engine-driven fuel pump alerts the crew should fuel pressure decline. Not all large, old aircraft have this fuel system. This is merely an example. Other aircraft share similar features and possess unique features of their ... same is true for small reciprocating-engine aircraft. There are many systems that share features with those described above, but they also differ in some ways. Always consult the manufacturer’s data when working on aircraft fuel systems…
