allowable compass error...
I had a thought, what do you think? If you are tracking a radial on a VOR
couldn't you compare the radial to the compass heading and get a good idea of the compass error?

What I'm looking for is an indication that the compass needs swinging. That's why my hypothetical scenario stated that the runway alignment is correct. That does happen, by the way, even if the odds are against it. GeorgeC
