Any leaks in the system?
Mike Rapoport wrote: I'm not sure of the cause of the descrepancy. It could be water in the pitot line or an error in the instrument. I am aware that most airplanes have increasing IAS errors at lower speeds. My issue is that the IAS points for my airplane seem to be quite a bit higher than in the skimpy flight manual and higher than other people are getting. The Helio was certified in the bronze age and only has minimal documentation. There are no detailed charts for anything. |

No known leaks and the airspeed reads correctly at cruise.
