A close reading of Tarver/Splapy's responses appear to indicate he is
slightly confused over/between "State of the Art Technology" circa 1960 &
present re the system being discussed.

Perhaps this "State of Confusion" is due not having worked with/being
current on this system.

No doubt about that, Ralph.

His insistence that there are 2 or more tubes connected to DADC "total"
brings up a cartoon in my mind, trying to teach Splaps how to do a
simple pitot system leak test. Has to be one of the simplest tests that
are done on an aircraft. What you do with a failed test is another story.
As much as Splaps despises the MM, I urge him to read the book.

I bet they utilize the same tester on a 777 that I used on a 707, a simple
blood pressure testing setup with a rubber hose substituting for the
cuff and an old altimeter indicator replaces the sphygmomanometer.
Slip the hose over the tube and pump the system up to a certain value
and make sure the bleed off, if any, is within spec.

Splaps yells, "Ouch!"

Aw, Splaps, I told you to read the book. You're supposed to turn off
the Pitot Heat.
