Paper summarizes progress from direct reading compasses to monitored gyroscopes and concentrates on unique problems in aircraft where space limitations, reliability, and operation at all altitudes are important; it indicates how azimuth indicators and auto pilot controls close to ideal are obtainable by use of special features including novel "non-tumbling" mechanism and electromagnetic type of gimbal adjusting device.
