Magnitude of dynamic errors in compass readings increases in approximately linear fashion as distance of compass from center of gravity of airplane is increased; for any particular location of compass there will be certain heading of airplane for which compass reading will have maximum error; dynamic errors may exist as magniture effects of up to several degrees, or as phase effects of up to almost 180°
