Compass Wingtip Magnetism was created by Mark

If you're working on an aircraft that uses Flux Valves on the wingtips and you have a compass split........ step number one.

Grab a handheld compass and check the area around the flux valve. Wild needle swings as you pass over screws are not a good thing.
