    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.

  3. Tach timer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tach_Timer

    The tach timer is usually used to schedule engine maintenance, although it is just an approximation of "Time in service" which is used to time and schedule aircraft maintenance. Time in service is defined in 14 CFR 1.1 [ 2 ] as the actual time in the air, whereas tach time measures engine revolutions, which would still count time on the ground ...

    At these times, the clock runs slower. Depending on the type of flight, tach time can be 10–20% less than Hobbs time. Many organizations, such as flying clubs, charge by tach time so as to differentiate themselves from fixed-base operators as 10–20% less time recorded makes it 10–20% cheaper to fly (if the hourly rate is the same). In the ...

    Cessna 172's G1000 tachometer (1,060 RPM) and engine hours (1736.7 hours) Tachometers or revolution counters on cars, aircraft, and other vehicles show the rate of rotation of the engine's crankshaft, and typically have markings indicating a safe range of rotation speeds. This can assist the driver in selecting appropriate throttle and gear ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_engine_controls

    Tachometer - A gauge to indicate engine speed in RPM or percentage of maximum. Manifold pressure (MP) gauge - Indicates the absolute pressure in the intake manifold . For an aircraft equipped with a constant speed propeller, this is the most direct indication of the engine's operating power.

  7. Avionics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avionics

    A "glass" cockpit refers to the use of computer monitors instead of gauges and other analog displays. Aircraft were getting progressively more displays, dials and information dashboards that eventually competed for space and pilot attention. In the 1970s, the average aircraft had more than 100 cockpit instruments and controls. [11]

    EFIS on an Airbus A380 EFIS on an Eclipse 500 Garmin G1000 on a Diamond DA42 Primary flight display of a Boeing 747-400. In aviation, an electronic flight instrument system (EFIS) is a flight instrument display system in an aircraft cockpit that displays flight data electronically rather than electromechanically.

  9. Glass cockpit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass_cockpit

    Simplified glass cockpit of an Airbus A220, featuring unified LCD screens for both pilots to reduce pilot workload. A glass cockpit is an aircraft cockpit that features an array of electronic (digital) flight instrument displays, typically large LCD screens, rather than traditional analog dials and gauges. [1]
