I've got AC 43.13-1B, which describes the procedure to swing a compass.
What I can't find is the bureaucratic stuff -- who can do it (any pilot?),
and what paperwork follow-up is required (airframe logbook entry, or is
just making the new compass card sufficient?).


I swung my own several years ago and made a new card. An A&P has to
sign it off.



I also swung my own (and a few friends). Our radio guy did the sign
off. Not to split hairs, but only an airframe license is required for
this one as far as I know. (He says putting on his flame proof
blazer).

HTH.
