11. Turn and slip indicator (Turn coordinator) provides information
about the rate of turn or the rate at which the aircraft's heading
changes. It helps pilots maintain coordinated flight during turns by
indicating how quickly the aircraft is rotating around its vertical axis
and how much it slips.
Turn indicator – a yellow needle. The more rotating speed around
vertical axis – the more needle is out of center.
Slip indicator – a slightly bent tube with a ball inside moving to the
side of slipping.
Always try to keep the ball centered to achieve a perfect turn.
12. The vertical velocity indicator shows how fast the aircraft
descend or climb in feet per minute (fpm). Especially suitable when
maintaining the leveled flight at constant altitude or when
descending for landing with safe vertical speed not exceeding 1500
fpm.
If you've used to meters per seconds velocity readings, then do the
simple math – roughly divide fpm by 200.
13. Fuel flow meter displays the current fuel consumption in lbs. per
hour (pph) х1000. The green zone corresponds to the normal
operation parameters.
14. Exhaust gas temperature (EGT) is assumptive indication of
overall engine operation. Green zone is safe. Red marks delineate
the critical margins. The temperature readings correspond to
degrees ºС х 100.
15. The Clock is used to display the current astronomical time.
