COCKPIT VENTILATION
Ventilation air is provided by vents located beside the rudder pedals. The
volume of the air supply can be regulated by sliding the vent shutters as
desired using your foot.
PITOT-STATIC SYSTEM AND INSTRUMENTS
The pitot-static system supplies ram air pressure to the airspeed indicator and
static pressure to the airspeed indicator and the altimeter. The system is
composed of a pitot probe mounted on the right wing strut.
Airspeed Indicator
The airspeed indicator is calibrated in knots. Limitations and range markings
(in KIAS) are incorporated on the instrument.
Altimeter
Aircraft altitude is depicted by a barometric type altimeter. A knob near the
lower left portion of the altimeter allows the ambient barometric pressure sub-
scale to be adjusted to the current value. This sub-scale has a dual
calibration of millibars (mb) and inches of Mercury (in Hg).
Vertical Speed Indicator
The vertical speed indicator indicates the aircraft rate of climb or descent in
feet per minute. The pointer is actuated by changes in ambient barometric
pressure as sensed by the static source.
