PARTIAL PANEL UNUSUAL ATTITUDE RECOVERIES
28. What will be the only significant change when performing unusual attitudes partial panel?
ANSWER: The standby AI will be substituted for the ADI display.
29. Once the desired course has been set on the HSI display, how is the intercept heading determined for

ANSWER: Look from the desired course to the head of the bearing pointer and an equal number of
degrees beyond.
