Inside Inspection

Inspecting Gauges

​Lizzy's not yet done inspecting Vyctor.  She must now go inside her plane and make sure the instrument panel is in working order.  

She'll also need to radio the tower to let them know that she'll be flying today.  The tower will communicate back important information like the wind speed and direction, ceiling (height of the clouds) and visibility, as well as which runway Lizzy needs to take-off from.  We'll learn about all of that in the next post.  

​For now, let's get familiar with Vyctor's instrument panel.​

Are you ready to learn about some of the gauges?

Time to Fly 🕛✈︎

A clock in a plane works just like your clock at home.  Vyctor's clock is analog, not digital.  
​You probably have both types at home.
