Alternative magnetic compass

Did find a magnetic compass in the F-16. All gliders I know of do require a compass so for now I will have one. Tried to get by with a stick on compass that I bought at Auto Zone, but that did not fly (so to speak) with the examiner, so I had to install a glare shield compass. https://www.quora.com/What-do-all-of...ets-cockpit-do Let's see now...Hmmm....Forgetting the excellent capabilities of my LX9000, PowerFlarm, and Flarmview, does my Pathfinder watch, which really has an outstanding compass "count?" How about the compass in my Delorme inReach Explorer? It has a digital compass? Now, what year is this? Is it 1947? 1952? Geezzz...Now, please excuse me..I am trying to see if I have room in my glider for my new sextant....(available right now on the Home Shopping Network.....Stock is limited, so do not delay!).... ;-)
