In prolonged turns, gyro precession can occur that is tracked by the
stabilization system and appears as undesirable ground targets on the
indicator. For example, a 1° precession error (which would probably not
be noticed on the gyro horizon) moves the antenna beam
approximately 10,500 feet at a point 100 NM from the aircraft, If ground
targets between 50 and 80 NM depending on aircraft altitude and the
actual setting of the tilt control.
