No, it's worthless now. Please send it to me and I will dispose of it
properly. :-D On 10/29/2015 7:02 PM, wrote: What is a reasonable value of a Bohli compass? does not appear to have ever been installed Does it still have value? r/Jim -- Dan, 5J

In continental Europe. Not sure if that expanded to the UK.

The ban was because a very skilled pilot could cloud fly without gyro
instruments, just using a Bohli compass. Not banned in the UK because we allow cloud flying.

I truly don't know what it's worth, if anything.
I've read that, properly set up, it can be used to fly in clouds. I've also read that it was banned in contests in the US for just that reason. It would be fun to have as a toy, just like that J-8 attitude indicator that I've had in a box for close to 40 years.
