Still have a compass?
So your owner's manual states a mechanical compass is required as minimum equipment. Fact is the sailplane has three GPS sources all with separate batteries. Has anyone been extended a "pass" by a FAA inspector on this?
If you license your sailplane experimental...would the FAA still insist the sailplane have a mechanical compass? A liquid-filled ball compass with a suction cup meets the requirement as written but certainly not as intended.
