Everything you need to know about the magnetic compass as a pilot! In this video, I discuss turning errors and acceleration errors caused by magnetic dip. I also explain variation and deviation. This information will help you study for the Private Pilot written exam and the oral exam for your check ride. This training is intended to follow the aeronautical knowledge areas in Part 61.105 section b for single engine aircraft.

Supposedly you can use the mag compass as an emergency turn indicator (if your T&B goes out or you don't have one) by flying a S heading, at least in smooth air.

Don’t worry. A lot of this will really click when you get in the plane. To be honest, some of this stuff (like this video) you won’t use too much. But you have to know how to do it for the checkride.

@flygy481 11 месяцев назад

Hey pal, absolutely love your videos. Thank you! ... I'm really having trouble understanding what you said, though, about these turning errors. I actually looked in the PHAK and it's seems you've described UNOS backwards. They way I see it; turning to north, the compass lags so you need to do the same in order for it to catch up/so that you don't fly beyond your intended heading. Turning south, again, the compass jumps ahead so you should go past the intended heading to compensate because the compass is way ahead of you. I have a few different sources of material laying in front of me that all seem to be agreeing with what I'm thinking. Unless, I'm truly out to lunch. I appreciate your time, bud.

@flygy481 11 месяцев назад

'If a turn is made to a northerly heading from any direction, the compass indication when approaching north lags behind the turn. Therefore, the rollout of the turn is made before the desired heading is reached' - PHAK

@FreePilotTraining 11 месяцев назад

Thank you! It looks like I did make a mistake here. All the examples are correct, BUT when I said that the compass will undershoot turns TO the north. That is wrong. It will undershoot turns FROM the north. It will overshoot turns FROM the south. Because of that YOU should Undershoot turns TO the North and Overshoot turns TO the south. I can’t believe I messed that up. Sorry about that. I need to get that fixed as soon as I can

@nathanhyland 10 месяцев назад

Not sure if it's just me but your drawings of N being red when you show the globe are different when you put the magnet on the compass. That also makes me not sure of where the heavy part is, when looking at the illustrations.

@peterdavila3045 2 года назад

Great video, thank you. The part towards the end of the video discussing magnetic deviation. When working on your flight plan, the Deviation only applies when flying using the magnetic compass correct? It would not apply when calculating the needed magnetic heading to use with an HSI in a glass cockpit, correct?

@FreePilotTraining 2 года назад

No problem! It applies when you use the compass and an analog Heading Indicator because you use the magnetic compass to set the HI. Digital HSIs use magnetometers

@MahmoudMohammed-nu5pg 10 месяцев назад

do I have to use this compass card everytime I make a turn ? or it's just important when it comes to update my heading indicator ? Thanks for the great content .

@FreePilotTraining 10 месяцев назад

Nope just use it to update or when your heading indicator is inop

@kylebedford9629 11 месяцев назад

I scratch my head at this topic. I have a hard time memorizing this. I just know that the compass is only really accurate in straight and level flight. That's when I reset my heading indicator and then I use that.

if you are in straight and level flight regardless of your heading; do you still need to correct for compass errors apart from deviation errors.

No. They are typically not a factor in straight and level flight

@RIB0S0ME Год назад

🚨 3:30 gotto play physics police: it can't be more weight on the left side because the right side is heavier as it is being pulled down more by gravity. However the blue side is likely to have a higher moment of inertia (calculated by integrating mass over distance to the rotation point. This relationship is to the power of three!). Due to the higher moment of inertia the compass can sway more in a turn (moment of inertia is conserved or lost due to friction or conversion to other moment of inertia planes).

@FreePilotTraining Год назад

Dude, that is the whole premise in dip error. Try reading the Pilots Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge. I’m not beyond making a mistake, but I didn’t just pull this concept out of my butt. It’s a proven concept that’s been around for years

This is incorrect. The compass overshoots turns to the north. You as the pilot need to undershoot to correct for this.
