You are flying an aircraft equipped with an electronic flight display and the air data computer fails. What instrument is affected?
Airspeed indicator
How should a pilot determine the direction of bank from an attitude indicator such as the one illustrated?
By the relationship of the miniature airplane (C) to the deflected horizon bar (B).
What is a benefit of flying with a glass flight deck?
Situational awareness is increased, offer new capabilities and simplify the basic flying task.
The proper adjustment to make on the attitude indicator during level flight is to align the
miniature airplane to the horizon bar.
What does a turn coordinator provide an indication for?
movements of an aircraft about the yaw and roll axes
To receive accurate indications during flight from a heading indicator, what must you do to the instrument?
