Jason76 Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Just to be absolutely clear.. what is the scale for the Vertical Velocity Indicator in Russian planes? I know in the US planes it is in 1,000 ft per minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RvETito Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Meters per second. It's scaled up to 300m/s and the scale is not linear as with the radioaltimeter. "See, to me that's a stupid instrument. It tells what your angle of attack is. If you don't know you shouldn't be flying." - Chuck Yeager, from the back seat of F-15D at age 89. =RvE= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
