I was monitored and observed the compass swing as a quality Manager.
First of all, I would consult the maintenance procedure's book for that aircraft and whatever regulatory commissions requires such as the FAA.
The basic steps are as follows:
Well, Mr. Nkomo, it is very simple and obvious to answer such basic elementary question, that is good for you to ask always when you are in doubt, YOU MAN MUST TO GO TO THE BIBLE OF THE TYPE OF THE AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE MANUAL, THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN SUCH TEST OR CALIBRATION, IS THE CERTIFIED AS MAGNET FREE TESTING AREA, IF IT IS IN THE AIRPORT OF THE AVIATION FACILITIES, YOU MUST BE SURE OF THAT FIRST OF ALL. Compass Swing it does not defer that much from basic types of aircraft, it is not a big deal compared to the big jet liners that we are the professionals in the aviation field do consider as a fraction matter to the safety and MEL requirement, GPS IS MORE IN USE BUT STILL THE NORTH POLE MAGNETIC FIELD STILL WORKS AS A BASIC DIRECTION FINDING TOOL, ALWAYS BACK TO THE TYPE OF THE AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE MANUAL. FREE YOUR MIND FROM ANY STATIC ELECTRICITY BEFORE DOING THE COMPASS SWING TESTS, IT DOES EFFECT THE ACCURACY OF THE TEST TOO.
