ABSTRACT:
An aircraft attitude indicator employing a gyro driven tape display. The tape takes the form of a closed loop stretched about a carrier mechanism, and includes a viewable horizon indication. The tape further includes a set of perforations which, preferably, are engaged and driven by sprocket teeth borne on a sprocket wheel member attached to the pitch gimbal of the gyro. The tape travels in response to tilt of the gyro spin axis relative to the aircraft, and in a direction so that reversed pitch sensing is accomplished.
