Glareshield mounted compass?

It's part of my manufacturer issued type certificate as well as a part 91 reg. As a professional pilot, I just assume not hang my livelihood out there with some hokie backup compass. That being said, I agree that it's useless with the exception of a very few scenarios. Understood - which is why I still have an aviation compass in my cockpit - but I refuse to be less safe (reduced visibility) to satisfy some bogus FAR requirement. So I found the smallest certified aircraft compass (the little PZL KI-13A) that I could mount in an inconspicuous location on my panel. Sometimes, it's the little things in life... Kirk 66
