I that case you are going to thank Christ (or what ever your mythical friend is ) your old instructor taught you ONUS. Unless you have a AHARS GPS the update rate is way to slow to fly limited panel on.

Subject: Re: [Aus-soaring] Compass Swinging Hi Chris, There are a few methods but the easiest is as follows... 1. Using a master compass (a good bush walking compass will do) align the glider North South. (This should be done well away from any hangars with power on and instruments running) Using a non magnetic screwdriver, adjust the compass to North. 2. Align the glider to South using the master compass and halve the error. 3. Repeat in East West. 4. Align the glider to all the cardinal headings (ie, every 30 degrees) and record the indicated heading. 5. Complete the correction card. Using this method you should be able to get to within 2 degrees on every heading (not always but usually).

Has any one got a procedure for swinging glider compasses, or a link to a web article would be good?
