ICAO VFR maps contain the magnetic deviation as information - you just have to apply it to all your directions and be able to remember in what direction you have to correct ;) Not so trivial under stress. Anyway, on US and EU latitudes, the difference is not much bigger than 2 or 3 degrees, right?
- wtallis 16y agoNo. The magnetic declination can be quite significant even in the continental US, and it isn't determined by latitude alone: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:IGRF_2000_magnetic_declination.gif http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:IGRF_2000_magnetic_declina...
