The Static Bypass Switch for the PILOT'S/NO. 2 static system is located on the Avionics Rack Panel.

• A. Avionics Rack Panel
• B. Center Console Panel
• C. Pilot's Panel
• D. Electrical Panel

Answer: (A)

The key idea is where the air data/avionics hardware, including the PILOT'S/NO. 2 static system and its bypass function, is centralized. The Static Bypass Switch is placed on the Avionics Rack Panel because it directly interfaces with the air data processing path and related avionics equipment. Locating it here keeps the switch with the components it serves, allowing quick, intentional isolation or switching of the static source without routing through cockpit panels or electrical distribution, and reduces wiring complexity and risk of inadvertent operation. The other panels are designated for cockpit controls or power distribution, not for avionics interface switches, so they’re not appropriate homes for this bypass control.
