Eliminate pitot-static lines.

[jeynon2]

How about building the pressure transducers for the pitot, static, AOA lines right into the pitot tube, and then running signal wires to the EFIS.  With todays glass panels, running pressure lines through the plane just adds unnecessary complexity, weight, and potential failure points. Of course adjustments would need to be made to the pitot-static system checks since there would be no lines to leak.

One big reason we haven't done this to date is that many customers opt to use our systems with other non-Dynon pitot tubes. This is particularly true of retrofit Dynon installations, which is a decent percentage of our customers.

So that's not a "never", but just wanted to give you an insight into our thinking.
