Deviation in a magnetic compass is caused by the
magnetic fields within the aircraft distorting the lines of magnetic force
During flight, when are the indications of a magnetic compass accurate?
only in straight and level flight
In the Northern Hemisphere, the magnetic compass will normally indicate a turn toward the south when
the aircraft is decelerated while on a west heading

In the Northern Hemisphere, a magnetic compass will normally indicate initially a turn toward the west if
a right turn is entered from a north heading
In the Northern Hemisphere, if an aircraft is accelerated or decelerated, the magnetic compass will normally indicate
correctly when on a north or south heading
