Where is the slip indicator located?

• A. Below the roll pointer
• B. Above the horizon line
• C. On the left side of the PFD
• D. In the top-right corner of the screen

Answer: (A)

The slip indicator is the inclinometer—the little ball in a curved tube—that shows whether the aircraft is slipping or skidding. It’s part of the attitude indicator and sits at the bottom of the display, directly below the roll pointer. In coordinated flight the ball stays centered; if it moves to one side, you’re in a slip or skid and need to correct with rudder or banking. This bottom placement lets you read both the bank information (from the horizon and roll pointer) and the slip/skid cue together quickly. It isn’t placed above the horizon line, on the left side of the PFD, or in the top-right corner of the screen.
