Diagram showing the face of the "three-pointer" sensitive aircraft altimeter displaying an altitude of 10,180 ft (3,100 m). Reference pressure of about 29.92 inHg (1013 hPa) is showing in the Kollsman window. An altimeter or an altitude meter is an instrument used to measure the altitude of an object above a fixed level. [1]
The dial on the right side displays the set ground atmospheric pressure, which can be adjusted with the knob on the bottom left. Thus, this altimeter is displaying an altitude of 10,180 feet with a ground pressure of 29.92 inHg. The stripes at the bottom are fully concealed at 15,000 feet and above and fully visible at 10,000 feet and below.

Airspeed indicator diagram showing pressure sources from both the pitot tube and the static port The pitot–static system obtains pressures for interpretation by the pitot–static instruments. While the explanations below explain traditional, mechanical instruments, many modern aircraft use an air data computer (ADC) to calculate airspeed ...
The cockpit of a Slingsby T-67 Firefly two-seat light airplane.The flight instruments are visible on the left of the instrument panel. Flight instruments are the instruments in the cockpit of an aircraft that provide the pilot with data about the flight situation of that aircraft, such as altitude, airspeed, vertical speed, heading and much more other crucial information in flight.

PFD with key instrument displays labelled PFD of a Garmin G1000. The details of the display layout on a primary flight display can vary enormously, depending on the aircraft, the aircraft's manufacturer, the specific model of PFD, certain settings chosen by the pilot, and various internal options that are selected by the aircraft's owner (i.e., an airline, in the case of a large airliner).
Garmin G1000 Primary Flight Display. An attitude and heading reference system (AHRS) consists of sensors on three axes that provide attitude information for aircraft, including roll, pitch, and yaw.
