Not quite sure what you meant by the above comment. The pitot for the

L-Nav
should always be connected to the same pitot port as the airspeed

indicator.

Right now the LNAV pitot and static info is taken from the TE probe
while the airspeed/altimeter values are taken from different probes. It
was my understanding that using a separate pilot+static for the LNAV was
better since the pitot and static measurments are then closer to the
free-stream values than those taken by the "normal" probes, which are
closer the fuselage.

Use whichever ports (pitot & static) suit you, however, it is best to have
both instruments connected to the same ports.
