The 3 RMPs can switch independently every navaid.

Only RMP 1 or 2 can switch independently every navaid.

Correct! Wrong!

During a turnaround, you notice that there is a residual groundspeed on both NDS. How do you correct this?

There is no corrective action possible until the aircraft is completely shut down.

It is possible to carry out a rapid re-alignment by turning all three ADIRS off momentarily.

As the engines have been shut down, it is necessary to carry out a full re-alignment of ADIRS 1 and 2 only.
