Default backup for vacuum pump/attitude indicator failure

I have the precise flight setup. I've never had to use it but, my sense
is that the vacuum failure light may be the most valusable component.

Concerning the scan to recognize a failure...In addition to the
backup, Precise Flight also offers a lamp that is triggered by
vacuum pump failure. An immediate warning rather than waiting to
discover it. True, it doesn't offer any redundancy, but minimizes
the time to identify a problem.

Of course I recognized my AI failure immediately -- I was turning
right and the AI turned left....
