Objet : Re: KR> Vertical Card Compass
I have the Precision Vertical Card compass. They are out of Chicago IL.
There unit is FAA certified and I beloieve it is standard equipment in
Pipers and several other aircraft.
As far as working with the company that makes them. I have had a great
experience with them. I wanted to mount mine back in the panel. The
problem
was that ther was magnetic interference with it in the panel.
I made several phone calls to them and I believe I worked with a guy named
John. They spent the time to help out me and my several year old compass
and
how to resolve my issue. The fix was installing magnetic compass
shielding
and they even recommended who I could get it from.
I could not give a higher recommendation for a company and their product.

AS a long time ago. It was the cheap one. It took forever to be
delivered
because it was back ordered for a long time. When it arrived, it did not
work. I think they are usually very good if you spend the money. I did
not
want to spend that much money and am using the old air path.
