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
also has
the necessary
operating
range
markings
for safe
operation
of the
airplane.
