Turn Coordinator Flashcards
The idea is to measure the yaw rate for ___ bank angles
yaw
Both axis are tilted ___, though is is less sensitive to roll
upwards
The ___ is sensed first, and the rate increases when the correct angle of bank is set
roll
The gyro is ___ operated
electrically
When the wings of the aircraft symbol are against the lower marks, the turn is ___
rate 1
Rate 1 turns are _ degrees per second
3
The steel ball underneath the indicator, in a clear tube, is called an ___, which indicates the quality of the turn
inclinometer
With the turn balanced, the centrifugal force offsets the pull of ___ and keeps the ball in the centre of the tube
gravity
In a slipping turn, where the rate of turn is ___ for the angle of bank, the centrifugal force will be weak and the ball will fall to the inside of the turn.
insufficient
In a skidding turn, where the rate of turn is ___ for the angle of bank, the centrifugal force exceeds the gravity and the ball moves to the outside of the turn
excessive
The turn is balanced when more than ___ of the ball is within the indicator marks
1 half
Turn and slip indicator does (not) give atttitude information
not
