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.
