Kati's 20 year old 'flexible' tubing from pitot head to instrument panel has hardened and needs replacement.
1 Any recommendations for replacement material that will be acceptable to the LAA, and supplier?
2 Any hints/tips for getting the section through the wing? There are 3 or 4 4"(guess) dia access panels along the wing, and I'm assuming that the original tube is tied/fixed in place so it won't be possible to pull the old one out using it to pull the new tube or a piece of sting through. My domestic drain rods are a bit large to be of any assistance!
