Radio navigation aid

In a radio navigation aid:

• first and secondary primary elongate arms movably connected to one another about a first axis for independent pivotal motion of the respective arms, each primary elongate arm having a longitudinal axis radiating outward from said first axis;
• a first compass rose rotatably mounted to said first and second primary elongate arms about said first axis;
• a second compass rose rotatably mounted to said first primary elongate arm about a second axis that is parallel to and spaced from said first axis and which is located along the longitudinal axis of said first primary elongate arm;
• a third compass rose rotatably mounted to said second primary elongate arm about a third axis that is parallel to and spaced from said first axis and which is located along the longitudinal axis of the second primary elongate arm;
• means for permitting relative longitudinal movement between the first compass rose and the second compass rose along the longitudinal axis of the first primary elongate arm;
• means for permitting relative longitudinal movement between the first compass rose and the third compass rose along the longitudinal axis of the second primary elongate arm;
• a first secondary elongate arm pivotally mounted about said first axis for motion independent of said first compass rose and said primary elongate arms;
• a second secondary elongate arm pivotally mounted about said second axis for motion independent of said second compass rose and said first primary elongate arm;
• and a third secondary elongate arm pivotally mounted about said third axis for motion independent of said third compass rose and said second primary elongate arm;
• each secondary arm having a pointer thereon overlapping the compass rose centered on the axis about which it is mounted and capable of visually indicating a heading on the compass rose;
• said secondary elongate arms each extending to a common side of the first and second primary elongate arms, and said first compass rose being intermediate the second and third compass roses;
• and means for selectively fixing the positions of said first, second and third compass roses and said first and second primary elongate arms relative to one another while permitting pivotal movement of the secondary elongate arms about the respective axes about which they are mounted.
