#4 In 1990, I flew up to Resolute in my plane. When you get to about 800 miles or so from the North magnetic pole, the magnetic compass is useless, as the horizontal component of the magnetic field is weak. Most of the lines of magnetic field are plunging into the earth. The plane's compass just wanders around aimlessly.

As a consequence, navigation becomes more of a problem. I used a sun compass, and some other tricks when I navigated. Now, with GPS, a lot of this is moot, until the GPS unit winks out, heh.

#5 Appearently the poles also reverse over geological time. No record on how quick it happens or whether or not there is an period of time during the switch when the mag field is down. Now that could be interesting to the local environment when there is no protection from some solar radiation.
