OK, I have spent hours researching this to no avail. Where are people mounting the magnetometer in 8(A)'s? The documentation on GRT's site says 12 inches from current carrying wires and 18 inches from ferrous metals. I assume other EFIS's have similar requirements. The only non-wing site I can ID in my 8A is up high in the back past the baggage compartment. That would be difficult to do once the back turtle deck is on and difficult to maintain.
Is it just larger masses of ferrous metals or does this include things like nutplates?
Thanks,
