Static Ports

 

Heres some on RotorWay ships


Heres a few from other types of helicopters



Mark Wolf, One of the fellow builders in the Rotorway community
was at the facotry one day a few years ago and I extracted this from a post he made.

I also learned that the static port experiment in the tail boom didn't work out. John said that a breeze from the rear of the ship while it was sitting on the ground would indicate airspeed. So they're back to just an open static port on the back of the IAS gauge.
