When flying in the Northern Hemisphere and making heading changes using only the magnetic compass, you initiate a left turn to a heading of 180 from a heading of 270. The magnetic compass will
indicate correctly when initiating the turn.
Left 18: Correct
18 y/o left was correct move
2974
If on a northerly heading of 350 you make a left turn to 280, what indication should you observe on the magnetic compass?
The magnetic compass will indicate a turn at a slower rate than actual.
Left 28: Slower
Peter left slower
2979
You are flying heading 170, and ATC instructs you to turn right to 260. The magnetic compass will
indicate a turn to the right at a faster rate.
Right 26: Right
3314

indicate the approximate correct magnetic heading.
Right 35: Correct
Durant Correct

You are flying heading 190, and ATC instructs you to turn left to 080. The magnetic compass will
indicate a turn to the left at a faster rate.
Left 080: Left Faster
Kobe Left Faster

Initially lead to the right.
Right 27: Right
2766
If on a northerly heading of 350 you make a left turn to 230, what indication should you observe in the magnetic compass?
The compass will show a small lag to the right.
Left 23: Lag
Jordan Lags to the left
3349
On what headings is the magnetic compass most accurate of the aircraft is accelerated or decelerated?
180* and 360*
MC Accurate: North and South
When making a turn to a Northerly heading in the Northern Hemisphere, how would you expect the magnetic compass to react?
