Where is the slip indicator located?

• A. Above the roll pointer
• B. Below the roll pointer
• C. On the left side of the display
• D. In the upper-right corner of the display

Answer: (B)

The slip indicator is below the roll pointer. In a standard attitude/turn instrument, the roll pointer shows the bank reference at the top, while the slip indicator (the inclinometer ball in the curved tube) sits in the lower portion to let you quickly judge coordination. When the ball is centered, the aircraft is in coordinated flight; if it drifts left or right, you’re slipping or skidding and should adjust rudder accordingly.
