FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS ATTITUDE INDICATOR Attitude information is displayed over a virtual blue sky and brown ground with a white horizon line. The Attitude Indicator displays the pitch, roll, and slip/skid information. 9 8 1 Roll Pointer 1 2 Roll Scale 2 7 3 Horizon Line 4 Aircraft Symbol 6 5 Land Representation 3 6 Pitch Scale 7 Slip/Skid Indicator 4 8 Sky Representation 5 9 Roll Scale Zero Figure 2-6 Attitude Indicator The horizon line is part of the pitch scale. Above and below the horizon line, major pitch marks and numeric labels are shown for every 10˚, up to 80˚. Minor pitch marks are shown for intervening 5˚ increments, up to 25˚ below and 45˚ above the horizon line. Between 20˚ below to 20˚ above the horizon line, minor pitch marks occur every 2.5˚. When the Synthetic Vision System is activated, the pitch scale is reduced to 10˚ up and 7.5˚ down; refer to the Additional Features section. The inverted white triangle indicates zero on the roll scale. Major tick marks at 30˚ and 60˚ and minor tick marks at 10˚, 20˚, and 45˚ are shown to the left and right of the zero. Angle of bank is indicated by the position of the pointer on the roll scale. The Slip/Skid Indicator is the bar beneath the roll pointer. The indicator bar moves with the roll pointer and moves laterally away from the pointer to indicate uncoordinated flight. Slip (inside the turn) or skid (outside the turn) is indicated by the location of the bar relative to the pointer. One bar displacement is equal to one ball displacement on a traditional Slip/Skid Indicator. Figure 2-7 Slip/Skid Indication 190-01255-00 Rev. A Garmin G1000H™ Pilot's Guide for the Bell 407GX 51
