PitotShield™
Featured in Aviation Safety magazine, the patented PitotShield™ pitot cover is designed specifically for light general aviation aircraft. The first and only friction-fit pitot cover designed to self-disengage from the pitot tube if left on prior to takeoff, PitotShield™ is used by thousands of pilots worldwide. Their testimonials highlight the value of this fail-safe cover as a key to their safety.
Even the most careful pilot can become distracted, missing a pitot cover during pre-flight. PitotShield helps avoid embarrassment, costly accidents and incidents, and litigation around failing to remove the pitot cover.
