The pa1-700 is a magnetic aircraft compass for primary or standby heading indication. This instrument uses Earth's magnetic field to provide directional reference without requiring electrical power. FAA TSO-C7 approved for non-stabilized magnetic direction sensing.

Mounted in the cockpit away from electromagnetic interference sources, it delivers reliable heading information during normal operations and emergencies. Installation requires compass swinging and compensation procedures per aircraft maintenance manual and FAA AC 43-215 guidance to account for local magnetic variation and aircraft-induced deviation.
