Plumbing and Static Sources

The last sentence is puzzling. Mechanical glider varios are connected to

the TE line and capacity and have no separate static connection. It is
connectng both an electric and mechanical vario to the same TE line by T
piece close to the instruments that has the potential for pneumatic
interference.
