nighteyes2017 Posted May 21, 2021 Posted May 21, 2021 In the lower left corner, the lower line gives you heading and ground distance. However the given heading does not match with the heading tape. It seems one uses magnetic heading, and the other uses true heading. I dont know if this is as intended but i cant imagine pilots having to do the math here using the magnetic variance for the map, since caucasus is exactly the 6 degree difference shown in the pics. https://gyazo.com/c29daf33f1954b7e32a6ca3152836720 https://gyazo.com/2caed0e915b5e8fd95c66218c3aa064e 1

Both use the same magnetic variation set in the MAGV page. 1
