Roll Indication
Major tick marks at 30 and 60 degrees and minor tick
marks at 10, 20 and 45 degrees are shown to the left and
right on the roll scale. The inverted white triangle indi-
cates 0 on the roll scale. Angle of bank is indicated by the
position of the roll pointer on the roll scale.
Slip/Skid Indication
The Slip/Skid indicator resides beneath the roll pointer.
The indicator moves with the roll pointer and moves later-
ally away from the pointer to indicate lateral acceleration.
A slip/skid is indicated by the location of the Slip/Skid
indicator relative to the roll pointer. One Slip/Skid indica-
tor displacement is equal to one ball displacement when
compared to a traditional Slip/Skid indicator.
