31 Part of an Airplane

32 Instruments Attitude Indicator Turn Coordinator Altimeter Airspeed Indicator Vertical Speed Indicator Heading Indicator

33 Attitude Indicator  Displays an aircrafts pitch and bank with a gyro stabilized bar which remains parallel to the horizon.

34 Turn Coordinator  Detects motion about the roll and yaw axes of an aircraft by utilizing the property of gyroscopic precession.

35 Heading Indicator  A gyro that gives a more stable indication of an aircrafts heading than a magnetic compass.

36 Airspeed Indicator  A pressure gauge that is calibrated to convert the difference between impact (or ram) air pressure due to an aircrafts motion and the local static air pressure into a reading of velocity thought the air mass.

37 Altimeter  Tells you your altitude by measuring air pressure.

38 Vertical Speed Indicator  Measures the rate of change of air pressure as the plane climbs or descends.
