Use these keys to set the compass prior to take-off.
That's what I pay the ground crew to do! Well, swing it and leave me do do the local adjustment. Not a whole 180'.

Yer just can't get the staff!

EDIT: Just one question. In FSX I can get a Tooltip magnetic reference heading off the standby/Whisky compass but the floating Spifire compass doesn't give me that and in any case its is too obscured to read. Where do I get a heading reference from in the cockpit so I can set the Gyro?
