  2. Altimeter setting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altimeter_setting

    The QNH altimeter setting is one of the data included in METAR messages. An alternative setting is QFE or SPS/STD: An alternative setting is QFE or SPS/STD: QNH - is the barometric altimeter setting that causes an altimeter to read aircraft elevation above mean sea level - altitude ( AMSL - above mean sea level) in ISA temperature conditions in ...

  3. Pressure altitude - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_altitude

    QNE is an aeronautical code Q code.The term refers to the indicated altitude at the landing runway threshold when or is set in the altimeter's Kollsman window. It is the pressure altitude at the landing runway threshold.

  4. Flight level - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_level

    To distinguish altitude from flight level, "on standard" or "on QNH" would be added during initial clearance, such as "climb 4,800 metres on standard" or "descent 2,400 metres on QNH 1020". RVSM was implemented in China at 16:00 UTC on 21 November 2007, and in Mongolia at 00:01 UTC on 17 November 2011.

  5. Density altitude - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_altitude

    The density altitude can also be considered to be the pressure altitude adjusted for a non-standard temperature. Both an increase in the temperature and a decrease in the atmospheric pressure, and, to a much lesser degree, an increase in the humidity, will cause an increase in the density altitude. In hot and humid conditions, the density ...

  9. Pressure altimeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_altimeter

    In aviation terminology, the regional or local air pressure at mean sea level (MSL) is called the QNH or "altimeter setting", and the pressure that will calibrate the altimeter to show the height above ground at a given airfield is called the QFE of the field. An altimeter cannot, however, be adjusted for variations in air temperature.
