Chris,

 

The static lines should be connected to the static port on the pitot/static
tube.  It's improper if it's not. 

 

(I don't know if it's legal for it to not be connected to the correct place
- it was part of the certification process for the airspeed indicator to be
accurate, wasn't it, guys?)

 

And hey, y'all, please trim posts before hitting send.  A recent message had
