Looking at the pitot tube on my Grumman Tiger, it looks a little beat up at the tip. Opening isn't round anymore, looks like someone whacked it around over the years. Anyone know of any guidlines for evaluating the servicability? I know some GA airplanes just have a piece of tubing for a pitot. If I saw it on a commercial jet, I'd write it up. Funny, had a guy out there checking the transponders and altimeter, he knew all about the leak rates and rules, never looks at the pitot tube though.
