Pitot tube modifications

We noticed that once mounted, the pitot mount is not angled straight down. We're making two changes, one is to fix the angle, and the other is to change from a steel to an aluminum mount to save weight.  Michael determined the correct angle and positioned the mounting plate correctly on new aluminum material we purchased.  Then I welded it to secure it in place (see picture below).  Hours: 1.0
