since they invented gps and foreflight, I must admit I haven't used a compass and chart or done dead reckoning or pilotage in decades. PHI did ask me to navigate to an airport 15 years ago on an interview flight. somehow I figured it out |

It's a vertical compass card with horizontal navigation indications presented on the face of the vertical compass card. You must not be a good scanner to not have noticed this in 20 years. A horizontal compass card is that of the wet compass type. It lays horizontal to the horizon, not vertical to the horizon. Don't tell my you've been cheating by looking under your foggles during your checkrides now. |

a compass or a chart, and don't scan your instrument panel very much, even when under the hood simulating IMC.

Of which you admitted you don't look at, but maybe a few seconds in 20 years of flying. Hard to pass your annual .293 if you don't reference a compass card for more than a few seconds (each year).

This is a compass! Direction is displayed with a vertical compass card!
From the Pilot Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge [IOWs, fundamental flying stuff]
https://www.faa.gov/sites/faa.gov/files/10_phak_ch8.pdf As instrument panels become more crowded and the pilot’s available scan time is reduced by a heavier flight deck workload, instrument manufacturers have worked toward combining instruments. One good example of this is the RMI in Figure 8-30. The compass card is driven by signals from the flux valve, and the two pointers are driven by an automatic direction finder (ADF) and a very high frequency (VHF) omni-directional radio range (VOR).

Figure 8-30. Driven by signals from a flux valve, the compass card in this RMI indicates the heading of the aircraft opposite the upper center index mark. The green pointer is driven by the ADF

Dumb fn smoke . Has it or has it not affected the compass problems. No sense in buying another 850 dollar compass oe have it overhauled if it was just a magnetic Flux issue. |
