IR written Primary/Secondary instrument questions

I believe strongly in the primary/supporting instrument concept. For
the experienced pilot, this may not make any sense because they look
at the whole panel and figure out what's going on. But a beginning
student needs clear directions. The primary/supporting concept
provides that direction. If you let a new student loose without
teaching the primary/supporting, they will eventually learn the
correct technique, but it will take longer. There is also the
potential for omitting one instrument in the scan.

I do too, but that simply makes the answers more obscure-seeming.
Anyway, I just completed that section of the test bank flawlessly after
following everyone's advice (Bob G's "which instrument do you NOT want to
move" tip was especially helpful).

Thanks,
Jeremy

The supporting instruments can be a bit obscure. I treat every
instrument on the panel as a supporting instrument.
