The angle between True North and Magnetic North.

A line drawn on a chart connecting points with zero magnetic variation.

The angle between the horizontal and the direction of the Earth's magnetic field at a given location.

The angle between Magnetic North and Compass North, caused by local magnetic influences.

A compass that directly indicates magnetic heading.

An increase in compass reading when turning right (starboard) in the Northern Hemisphere.

An error in compass reading caused by the acceleration of the aircraft.

A type of compass suspension designed to reduce oscillation.

The lines on a chart showing points with the same magnetic variation.

The strength of the Earth's magnetic field decreases as you move further from the poles.

The magnetic compass card will turn anti-clockwise, giving an apparent turn toward the south.

The compass card will turn clockwise, giving an apparent turn toward the north.

A line drawn on a chart connecting points with zero dip.

In the Southern Hemisphere, the compass will over-indicate the turn, and liquid swirl will decrease the effect.

The compass will over-read, and the effect is increased by the liquid swirl.

A method used to convert true course to compass heading by accounting for magnetic variation and deviation.

A compass error caused by the effects of nearby magnetic objects.

The Earth's magnetic field is weaker at higher altitudes.

The magnetic field is weaker further away from the magnetic poles.

The sensitivity of a direct reading magnetic compass is inversely proportional to the horizontal component of the Earth's magnetic field.

The change in magnetic variation over time is primarily due to the movement of the Earth's magnetic poles.

True North is West of Magnetic North.

Isogonals converge at the North and South magnetic poles.

The maximum dip angle is 90 degrees, occurring at the magnetic poles.

The direct reading magnetic compass is made aperiodic using damping wires and by positioning the magnetic assembly mass close to the compass point.

The compass will under-indicate the turn, and the effect is decreased by the liquid swirl.

The compass will under-indicate the turn, and the effect is increased by the liquid swirl.
