The CL11 Gyrosyn Compass offers pre- cision operation for high-performance civil and military aircraft that could previously only be obtained by using much larger, heavier and more compli- cated systems. Moreover, Sperry has engineered a conversion from the existing well-proved CL2/G4B Gyrosyn compass system to the new CLll system. The change-over involves the minimum of modifications, and thereby facilitates the installation of this greatly improved compass in any aircraft now equipped with the earlier system. r" ii i I1 1I II 1« I Trade Mark is^ "IT 31. .
