Default Schleicher pneumatic tube plumbing question

9B,

I assume by now you've read my post describing the problem.

My 29 has 3mm OD (polyethylene?) tubing going from the fore end of the
area under the glare shield to under the seatpan. After reading yours
and GY's accounts, my guess is that the factory addressed the problem
my using the smaller polyethylene tubing for this part of the glider,
which does much better under heat and stress than the larger tubing.



Interesting. I check in a few times a year to see what new tech notes
are out but didn't see one on this.

Anyone have a new 28 with this configuration?
