Pitch Attitude in Percent Instead of Degrees

Just reading an accident report on a Partenavia P68 and they have a discussion about the required pitch attitude at a certain point in flight. They say that they were informed by an experienced pilot at an 11%(6.3 degrees) pitch attitude is required.

Are there some aircraft types or artificial horizons that use percent as pitch attitude rather than degrees?
