This chapter includes the presentation of the instrument panels which are located in the cockpit.

It will also include independent instruments or systems,which are not related to any specific system, such as timing devices and the digital flight data recorder.

The instruments which belong to airplane systems are described in their respective chapters.

The instrument panels in the cockpit are mounted on the fuselage structure without the use of vibration insolation. Those instruments requiring reduction of friction error are provided with integral instrument isolation.

All instrument dial markings, placards inscriptions and instructions are in the English language, and limitation markings of the instruments are located on the dial face.

The graduation of the instruments and the placards in the cockpit pertaining to the instruments are in the following units, as you can see from the table.

The fuel gages and flowmeters are in kilograms and kilograms per hour, as appropriate.

The electrical instruments, which are installedin the cockpit, are connected by plugs and the pneumatic instruments by flexible hoses. All wiring and flexible hoses are of sufficient length to allow the removal of the instruments without opening the panel.

All hoses and fittings are designed to prevent incorrect connection. So, each hose is equipped with a permanent lable showing the name of the equipment to which it is connected. The pneumatic instruments are provided with quick disconnect fittings.

- A red wrning requires immediate action.

- An amber warning requires immediate attention, but not immediate action.

- A green or blue indication displays a satisfactory condition.

- The white indication displays that the ground power is available
