Cockpit Instrumentation
Cockpit instrumentation refers to the array of instruments and controls located in the cockpit of an aircraft. These instruments provide essential information to pilots, including altitude, speed, heading, and engine performance. They help ensure safe navigation and operation of the aircraft during flight.
The primary components of cockpit instrumentation include altimeters, airspeed indicators, and attitude indicators. Each instrument serves a specific purpose, allowing pilots to monitor the aircraft's status and make informed decisions. Modern aircraft may also feature digital displays and glass cockpits, which integrate multiple functions into a single screen for enhanced usability.
