Yet again, thanks for explaining things so well, Greg.

Awesome video ! In older planes if static port was blocked we could break the glass of the altimeter to get the pressure from the cabin. Well done and keep up the good work 👍✈️

Thank you for the life-saving advise. I am just starting out and these videos are extremely helpful.

Definitely a great video

Amazing video! Please add to the instrument course :)

Damn, this is the best aviation content I've seen on KZfaq!

Thanks Greg, these new videos of yours are spectacular!

WOOHOO! What a freaking great explanation! HIGH FIVE Greg!

Excellent video! I do have a pitot-static question: Several years ago, I was flying with a friend in his C310R FIKI-equipped from Gibbs-Montgomery Field in San Diego, CA to Lakefront airport in New Orleans for Mardi Gras. We encountered rime at around 13000' over New Mexico, and the ASI, VSI, and ALT began to malfunction, then freeze, except the ASI . Larry--the PIC-- immediately opened the Alt air vents while I poured over the charts to find a nearby airport we could divert to. It wasn't until we could safely descend below 7000' with the help of Larry's Garmin watch, that first the ASI stabilized, then the ALT and VSI began functioning normally a moment later. My question is, why, if the alt air vents were opened, did the affected instruments not begin to function immediately, or at least soon after the new static air source was introduced?
