Failed Instrument Cover
Made with heat resistant silicon Sporty's® developed this simple silicon disc with a suction cup on the back to allow you to practice instrument flying with a "failed instrument" (partial panel) and also to cover an instrument that actually fails in flight. Failed instruments, especially the attitude indicator, are dangerous because it is difficult to ignore their erroneous presentation which can lead to loss of control. Provides an easy and inexpensive way to practice any combination of instrument failures and very important when a real failure occurs. Measures 3 1/8 in. dia. Extra thick suction cup holds fast to any instrument gauge. A must for all pilots. |
