SYSTEMS DESCRIPTION
INSTRUMENT PANEL
Standard primary instruments include an airspeed
indicator, engine and rotor dual tachometer, altimeter,
manifold pressure gage, and magnetic compass. Engine
gages include an ammeter, oil pressure, oil temperature,
cylinder head temperature, and fuel quantity for main
and aux tanks. Also standard are a clock, a carburetor
air temperature gage, and a digital outside air temperature
gage. A collective-activated hourmeter is located right
of the pilot’s seat and may be used for recording time in
service. (Older aircraft may have an hourmeter activated
by engine oil pressure.)
Views of typical instrument panels are given on the
following pages. Pilots should familiarize themselves with
panel layout and equipment installations for each specific
aircraft that they fly.
