Default Crashing on takeoff... how odd

It works well if you know what runway you are on. However, a runway can
be quite a ways off the magnetic azimuth before it gets renumbered so you
could easily be 5 degrees off on your DG setting.


As I said, it works quite well if you know the magnetic azimuth of the
runway.
