ACS element text (the applicant demonstrates understanding of)

Instrument Interpretation.

Emphasis on a single instrument, instead of on the combination of instruments necessary for attitude information, is an understandable fault during the initial stages of training. Because of precession error, the attitude indicator temporarily shows a slight error, correctable by quick reference to the other flight instruments.
