This is the Vision prototype designed/built by Steve Rahm in USA. and still being supported by Pro Composites Ltd. in USA. The aircraft is a 2 seat side by side, scratch built from a series of manuals. Built entirely of fiberglass and carbon cloth material the builder needs to know or learn some of the easy basics of composite construction. Building began Feb. 1998 in my spare time with 7 years where no building was possible. Building Hours at February 28, 2022: 4248.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Some short videos of flights are at: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfxJXIwvmfNlNF3gwplFw7Q

Pitot and Static Connections

 November 16 2020

The pitot static vents have been installed on the aft fuselage sides.  As is done on Vans aircraft I have just used a Aluminum pop rivet outer shell and it is just the proper size to allow the plastic tubing to be friction fit on.  I believe the tubing is .17 ID and .25 OD and I am using just a common hardware store clear tubing.  My Pitot airspeed tube has be fabricated to mate to the chrome extension and connected to the plastic pitot tubing in the wing.
