G meter.. steady state level flight.. or sitting still on the ground it will
measure 1G like it is right now.. looks like he's been "light", but not to
"zero G" and he's been heavy to 2G (60degreebanked turn?)

Maybe he uses it to record his students punishment of the runway on hard
landings..

Looking through ads on aso.com, I ran into this picture.
http://www.aso.com/aircraft/77810/panel-1.jpg

What is the instrument in the lower left of the panel underneath the
clock?

It looks a bit like a VSI, but the 0 point is at 12 o'clock instead of
9 o'clock, and it appears to have 3 indicator arms. Also, the scale
isn't symmetric, it runs from -5 to +12.

If it helps - the plane is a Cherokee 180.

Thanks,
Nathan
