Default Static ports

Many gliders of that vintage were certified with forward statics
only. Aft statics were a factory option, ordered by people interested
in accurate variometry.

Your ASI should be on the forward statics, since that was the way it
was calibrated and certified.

Best bet is to look in flight and maintenance manuals and see what
