10-36. AIRSPEED INDICATOR.
10-37. GENERAL. The airspeed indicator provides a means of indicating the speed of the airplane passing
through the air. The airspeed indication is the differential pressure reading between pitot air to pressure and
static air pressure. This instrument has the diaphragm vented to the pitot air source and the case is vented to the
static air system. As the airplane increases speed, the pitot air pressure increases, causing the diaphragm to
expand. A mechanical linkage picks up this motion and moves the instrument pointer to the indicated speed.
The instrument dial is calibrated in knots and miles per hour and also has the necessary operating range
markings for safe operation of the airplane.
