When aligning an aircraft for a compass swing, the maximum allowable error is
- 1 degrees.
- 3 degrees.
- 5 degrees.
Explanation from PART66Online
When positioning an aircraft on each cardinal heading for a compass swing, the heading need only be set within a tolerance, the maximum allowable alignment error being about 5 degrees. Greater precision is unnecessary because the swing procedure averages the readings, but the aircraft must still be reasonably close to the intended heading.
