We recently purchased a 1956 Super Cub. We are very happy with it but have some issues with the airspeed indicator. Mostly reading to low according to the GPS. Probably around 13 mph slow at all speeds. If I pull the static line off in the cabin it will read right along with the gps. Open the left window and lose the airspeed again(almost the same as when the static is hooked up).
I am assuming when I am opening the window with the static line off I am pressurizing the static system. That leads me to believe when I have the static system hooked up it is somehow pressurizing. It is the standard cub static with the four holes under the pitot tube between the jury struts.
What am I missing.
Thanks,
Dave
