The FAA in New England is so useless for approving changes to aircraft certified under CAR 3, 3A, and 4, that I was thinking of mounting a MicroAir transponder and an encoder in a box that I could temporarily install in my Collegiate and then mount the antenna on the belly with a light gage sheetmetal groundplane above the fabric. Is your encoder's static line just open to the inside of the wing?
