Greetings,
My PA-28-180 project is moving along, but I'm still working on some nagging issues. Salvage company cut the Pitot-Static lines (and fuel lines!) when removing the wings. I recall a recent thread, which I thought I tagged to follow but now can't locate, where the OP showed lines and fittings used in his/her system. As you can see from the photos, I'm looking for a good, leak-free method to re-join the hard lines from the wing to the hose/tubing inside the fuselage. I tried locating replacement hard lines, but no joy. Don't really need much length, but splicing will be necessary, which is obviously a potential source of leaks.
Does anyone recall the thread I'm looking for? Also interested in thoughts on a repair to discuss with my A&P. Thanks in advance.
