Figure 2-19 Vertical Speed (V/S) Tape
The Vertical Speed Indicator displays the aircraft vertical speed using a non-
moving tape. The tape can be scaled at ±2000, ±3000, or ±4000 fpm as set by
the installer. Major gradations are every 1000 fpm and minor gradations every
500 fpm. The current vertical speed is displayed in the pointer along the tape.
Digits appear in the pointer when the climb or descent rate is greater than 100
fpm. If the rate of ascent/descent exceeds the vertical speed displayed on the
tape, the pointer appears at the corresponding edge of the tape and the rate
appears inside the pointer. The Vertical Speed Indicator range determines the
airspseed tape range.
