[QUOTE="aviator41, post: 2221174, member: 30309"] Love the crank radios and shake type flashlights - with one hard and fast rule about them. Neither are allowed anywhere near my airplane as they can throw the compass off by several degrees. In a SHTF scenario or other emergency, it may very well be the only navigation I have. I bring this up for those of you who may have orientering as a feather in your proverbial survival cap. just remember that the magnets used in these devices (they're just little stator coils) WILL throw the delicate needle of a compass off when in close proximity.
