A

Turn Coordinator

42
Q

Pitot-Static Instruments

A
  • Airspeed Indicator
  • Altimeter
  • Rate of Climb Indicator
43
Q

How does the Airspeed indicator work?

A

Ram airspeed (from pitot) is compared against static pressure

44
Q

How does altimeter work?

A

As altitude increased, pressure decreases, causing the meter to go up. Must be calibrated to pressure at sea level to be accurate.

45
Q

How does the rate of climb indicator work?

A

The needle is actuated by atmospheric pressure changes supplied by static port.
