June 6, 20169 yr The AI in the DC6B is offset from the vertical by ~3'. The Cirrus yoke shows a red bar during roll calibration; the data for the roll ranges from -.9 to .9 which is similar to the other axes. Any suggestions as to why the AI is offset and the yoke apparent calibration problem? Is there a correlation? Thanks-- Robert

Any suggestions as to why the AI is offset and the yoke apparent calibration problem? Can you describe this differently? The only sense I can make of this is that, when your yoke is level, the AI is showing you're 3 degrees above the horizon. This is normal for most aircraft, particularly of this size. In any case, the AI is able to be re-indexed by using the roll wheel at the bottom of the gauge, should you choose to have the AI level with the horizon. Kyle Rodgers
June 6, 20169 yr Author Understood--The AI roll "pointer' is offset from the vertical by 3'. The yoke is centered/level. Although the roll deflections are nominal, the yoke does NOT move (I have been using the first situation at KPDX). Thanks, Robert Willis
