How does the Pitot Stick work?

 

The Pitot Stick is a handheld installation assistance tool to aid swift and safe installation or removal of the Pitot cover on aircraft.

 

Weighing only 210 grams, the Pitot Stick has a telescopic shaft that increases the tool length from 46cm up to 71cm meaning that the Pitot covers become accessible without the need of steps or a stand.

Although initially designed for use on the Gulfstream G650 and G550 aircraft, the PitotStick will work on a variety of different aircraft types including the Gulfstream G400, G500, G600, G700 and the G800 aircraft. The PitotStick can also be found in the Gulfstream Ground Service Equipment Catalog.
