The nearest to maximum altitude a continuous wave RADALT will usually indicate is?

(D)
Advantages of the gyrostabilised remote indicating compass over the direct reading magnetic compass are?

reduced turning errors, reduced deviation and salvable output.
Advantages of the direct reading magnetic compass over the gyrostabilised remote indicating compass are?

not reliant on external power, simple construction and economical.

weakening of the transmission and returns
The principale advantage of the IVSI or the VSI is ?

The IVSI utilises an inertial system to assist in climb and descent.
