Anyone fly with gauges? We've been having problems with gauges reporting pressure after going on a plane. For example a 160 psi gauge is now reading 24 psi at atmosphere after a flight yesterday. These are high quality gauges. Only one of the 4 gauges that went on yesterday's trip is off. None were effected on Tuesday's trip.
I'm sure baggage guys are no more rough on the hard shell foam filled box they were in than I was when they laid open in the backseat of my truck in a past life. They go baggage compartment because TSA doesn't like the pitot and wrench in the cabin. Theories include cold and pressure differences in the baggage compartment but why not every gauge and why not every time. Just as often none of them are damaged. And why aren't my personal's effected?
