Marv,
Here are replies to your questions:
1. All-Red chevrons only, and nothing changed the indicator - including
very high AOA and very low AOA maneuvers.
2. Yes, we physically verified all the hookups, and all appeared fine (I
did the blowing, Bill did the verifying).
3. We did the hangar calibration inside Bill's hangar.
Only item of significance that I could note was that one of the tubes was
relatively harder to blow into (maybe the one that indicated on the
altimeter?).
Thanks, and I'll be calling Rob this morning.
Matt

[Hi Matt... I'm assuming that the display was showing red chevrons while
Barking Betty was yelling at you. We there any attitude that caused the
display to show changes in the AOA, or was it locked in a high-AOA or
stalled
position (ie, entire display lit up)? Did you physically verify the
integrity of all the tubing hookups to the AOA computer? As we discussed
back
when you first posted your request, most of the problems Jim and I
encountered
in trying to get to the bottom of calibration difficulties related to leaks
or
improper connections between the ports and the computer.
