Hi - I don't know who you are or what you had in mind when you wrote this, but I think it should be pointed out that much of what you wrote is very misleading, inaccurate, and just plain wrong. For example, starting at #1, you claim that a "turn coordinator tells you how far you have turned horizontally." It does absolutely no such thing - or, rather, that description is good enough for your grandmother, but not for anybody who may one day want to pilot an aircraft. Moving on to #2 - your description of the ASI is better, but still very lacking. The ASI acutally indicates the difference between the static and dynamic pressure read by the pitot static system - there are many errors and factors that need to be considered by pilots. #3 - which instruments? and so forth and on it goes. In short, this was a nice attempt for a junior-high school student, but anybody actually interested in aviation should ignore this page.
