Compass Correction Card

At least for my LS8-18, the feds can get you another way - a compass
is on the Minimum Equipment List. So my glider is required to have a
"magnetic direction indicator". The jury is still out on a correction
card, though...

In the world of Federal Aviation Regulations the compass is called a
"magnetic direction indicator" and the compass correction card is a
"placard". Try a search of all the regulations (www.landings.com) and
try to find one regulation related to the installation of a magnetic
direction indicator in a "glider" or an "aircraft" - I found none!
All the regulatory requirements are specific to airplanes, rotorcraft,
or certain airships.

Anyone who finds one related to gliders please let me know. Otherwise
celebrate your freedom by burning your correction cards.
