I'm re-plumbing and re-wiring a Nimbus 2 cockpit and want to know why there are filters in some of the instrument tubing.
There is a filter on the nose mounted pitot tube as well as on the static tube from the tail boom.
There was no filter/gust filter on the TE tube, nor on the four nose mounted static ports.

Since I'm upgrading all the flow based instruments to pressure transducer based instruments is there any benefit in retaining these filters?
They look like the one on the right in this pictu http://www.svsponline.co.uk/user/pro...t%20filter.jpg
