Why wouldn't it?It seems that gyroscopes should be studied more.I'll answer these in detail later, but aircraft AI gyros do NOT do "prove flat earth"! All they do is give a short term (10 minute or so vertical reference). They have a built in mechanism to gradually reset themselves to this.

I don't quite know this guy's point.
One the other hand, just look up how marine Gyro-compasses work. These rely on the rotating earth to set themselves to true north and not magnetic north.
But, unless you like lots of egg on you face, don't try pushing gyros as "proof of flat earth". Small mechanical gyros (as in aircraft) simply do not have the long term stability to do this.
