ANSWERS
On the taxi check, the magnetic compass should
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\

|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
B. exhibit the same number of degrees of dip as the latitude.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
C. swing freely and indicate known headings. - CORRECT ANSWERS
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
✔✔Answer (C) swing freely and indicate known headings.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
When taxiing, the magnetic compass should be checked to make sure that the
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
compass card is swinging freely and indicating known headings.

What should be the indication on the magnetic compass as you roll into a
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
standard-rate turn to the left from an east heading in the Northern
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
Hemisphere?
A. The compass will remain on east for a short time, then gradually catch up
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
to the magnetic heading of the aircraft.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
,B. The compass will indicate the approximate correct magnetic heading if the
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
roll into the turn is smooth.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\
C. The compass will initially indicate a turn to the right. - CORRECT
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
ANSWERS ✔✔Answer (B) The compass will indicate the approximate correct
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
magnetic heading if the roll into the turn is smooth. |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
If you roll into a smooth, coordinated, standard-rate turn to the left or right
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
from an east or west heading, the compass will indicate the approximate
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
correct magnetic heading. There are no turning errors on turns from east or
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
west headings. |\
What should be the indication on the magnetic compass as you roll into a
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
standard rate turn to the right from an easterly heading in the Northern
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
Hemisphere?
A. The compass will indicate the approximate correct magnetic heading if the
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
roll into the turn is smooth.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\
B. The compass will initially indicate a turn to the left.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\

(A) The compass will indicate the approximate correct magnetic heading if the
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
roll into the turn is smooth.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
,If you roll into a smooth, coordinated, standard-rate turn to the left or right
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
from an east or west heading, the compass will normally indicate the
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
approximate correct magnetic heading. Acceleration, not turning, errors are
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
found in east or west headings in the Northern Hemisphere.

What should be the indication on the magnetic compass as you roll into a
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
standard rate turn to the right from a south heading in the Northern
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
Hemisphere?
A. The compass will indicate a turn to the right, but at a faster rate than is
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
actually occurring. |\
B. The compass will remain on south for a short time, then gradually catch up
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
to the magnetic heading of the aircraft.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
C. The compass will initially indicate a turn to the left. - CORRECT
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
ANSWERS ✔✔Answer (A) The compass will indicate a turn to the right, but
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
at a faster rate than is actually occurring.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
In turns from a southerly heading in the Northern Hemisphere, the compass
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
leads the turn. That is, it indicates a turn in the proper direction but at a faster
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
rate than is actually occurring.

What should be the indication on the magnetic compass as you roll into a
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
standard rate turn to the right from a westerly heading in the Northern
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
Hemisphere?
A. The compass will remain on a westerly heading for a short time, then
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
gradually catch up to the actual heading of the aircraft.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
B. The compass will indicate the approximate correct magnetic heading if the
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
roll into the turn is smooth.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\
C. The compass will initially show a turn in the opposite direction, then turn
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
to a northerly indication but lagging behind the actual heading of the aircraft.
