The Aerogizmos Pitot has several advantages over the standard pitot tube: it
incorporates the mount and the tube in one convenient unit, making it no longer necessary to
have a separate mount. This unit further enhances the building experience as there is no

from a single piece of 6061 aluminum making it strong and long lasting. The unit has been
lightened in the interest of weight savings. The Aerogizmos Pitot Tube has a modern look, and
has a polished finish. This is a very simple unit that is aesthetically pleasing and easy to mount.
These qualities are true to the experimental aircraft theory of simplicity, quality and durability
while incorporating a very modern look and a price that is less than that of a traditional pitot
tube. Not for IFR use. A $199 value!
