Aircraft general knowledge

If, as shown in the picture here, errors occur

in the system, you are warned, and then you
have to resort to the backup instruments,

which are typically the old type of instruments

in our aircraft.

But as also in newer and larger aircraft can be

the case, the “IMU 2” system, which drives

the instruments for the “first officer”. “IMU 1” is the captain’s system.

So there is redundancy and safety built into the systems, and there is a warning

if errors are detected.

Here is how the system
output can look.

Here is the link to the video from which the above picture was cut.

It is highly recommended that you watch it. There is a good simple explanation

of the new technology.

Also try to google ASPEN 1000 and see what this system offers. Or even better,

get your certificate on the school plane OY-TLA, which has all the latest

equipment.
