AGK Revision Notes
The Turn Co-ordinator is generally electrically operated, so is not affected by a suction pump failure. The Attitude Indicator and the Direction Indicator ARE powered by the suction pump. Both of these instruments will fail if the pump fails. The gyros in these instruments have an extremely fast average spin rate of about 18,000 rpm.…

Primary and secondary effects of flight controls
1. Lateral Axis (Pitch): 2. Longitudinal Axis (Roll): 3. Vertical Axis (Yaw): Flight Controls and Effects: Understanding these primary and secondary effects is crucial for pilots to manage the aircraft’s attitude and energy efficiently, especially during maneuvers, takeoffs, and landings. Each control’s effect can vary depending on the phase of flight, airspeed, and other dynamic…

Three Axis
In aviation, the three axes of flight refer to the imaginary lines that pass through an aircraft’s center of gravity, defining its movements in three-dimensional space. Each axis has corresponding flight controls that allow the pilot to manage the aircraft’s attitude and direction. Here’s an overview: 1. Lateral Axis (Pitch) 2. Longitudinal Axis (Roll) 3.…
