Hi Dave,
At least in the past I have not had any problem getting these plastic static
port ends from Europa Aviation.

Hi Dave,
If you contact me off list, I may be able to help (ie: make up a new piece).
Worth speaking to Europa first in case they carry spares though in my
experience they dont seem to have much in stock. LAS are pretty good though
and if these are the same will probably be your best bet.
My Europa is one of the very early ones so im not familiar with this
particular pitot static head.

straight in the cross wind when it leapt off the ground). I flew on home and
managed to land the aircraft using GPS ground speed.
