Which among the following - in the instrument panel- gives information about the pitch of an aircraft?
-
VSI
-
Ground Speed Indicator
-
Attitude Indicator
-
Altimeter
C
Correct answer
Explanation
The Attitude Indicator (also called Artificial Horizon) displays the aircraft's orientation relative to the earth's horizon, showing pitch (nose up/down) and roll (bank angle). This directly gives pitch information. The VSI shows vertical speed rate, not absolute pitch. Ground Speed Indicator shows horizontal speed over ground. Altimeter shows altitude, not pitch angle.
