Tom,

My IVP seems to = have similar issues with the Dukes. I am presently flying with the = outflow valve covered and taped over because it seems to let out all the = pressure if I don't. I am only getting 2.0 max PSID so risk of over = pressure is not something I worry about although I watch cabin altitude = and PSID pretty actively when I'm about 12,000 feet or = higher.

Nice to meet you in = Greenville.
