Slip/Skid Indicator
The slip/skid indicator [Figure 7-12] is the horizontal
line below the roll pointer. Like a ball in a turn-and-slip
indicator, a bar width off center is equal to one ball width
displacement.

Turn Rate Indicator
The turn rate indicator, illustrated in Figure 7-12, is typically
found directly above the rotating compass card. Tick marks to
the left and right of the luber line denote the turn (standardrate
versus half standard-rate). Typically denoted by a trend
line, if the trend vector is extended to the second tick mark
the aircraft is in a standard-rate turn.
