Glad to see we've started a bit of discussion on ADF dip.

With my combination of NDB & aircraft equipment, the ADF is a waste of time, because I'm not prepared to accept an error of +/- 180 deg!

On one hand, we should allow for dip as it would seem to be the only quantifiable (at least in apporximate terms) of all potential ADF errors.

On the other, from reading fireflybob's remarks, whilst we should be aware of it, it has little practical effect in light aircraft.

Does anybody agree/disagree - and is there anubody who flies "grown up" aircraft that can explain how they cope with?
