A gyroscopic flight instrument that gives the pilot an artificial reference for the pitch and roll attitude of the aircraft. A gyroscope with an erection system that keeps it perpendicular to the earth’s surface controls a bar that remains parallel with the horizon. By referring to this instrument, the pilot can keep the aircraft level when the natural horizon is not visible.
Industry:Aviation
A gyroscopic flight instrument that gives the pilot an indication of the attitude of the aircraft relative to its pitch and roll axes.
The attitude indicator in an autopilot is in the sensing system that detects deviation from a level-flight attitude.
