Vertical Speed Indicator
The Vertical Speed Indicator displays the aircraft verti-
cal speed with numeric labels and tick marks at 1,000 ft.
and 2,000 ft. in each direction on the non-moving tape.
Minor tick marks are at intervals of 500 ft.
Vertical Speed Pointer
The Vertical Speed Pointer displays the current vertical
speed and points to that speed on the non-moving tape. If
the rate of ascent is greater than 2,000 feet per minute the
pointer will appear at the top edge of the non-moving tape
and the number of feet per minute will appear inside the
pointer. If the rate of descent is greater than 2,000 feet per
minute a negative sign is displayed in the pointer (-2,000)
for negative (down) vertical speed and the pointer will ap-
pear at the bottom edge of the non-moving tape.
NOTE: Digits appear in the pointer when the
climb or descent rate is >100 fpm.
