Calibrated altitude at field elevation
Absolute altitude at field elevation
True altitude at field elevation
Pressure levels are raised on warm days and the indicated altitude is lower than true altitude
Higher temperatures expand the pressure levels and the indicated altitude is higher than ture altitude
Lower temperatures lower the pressure levels and the indicated altitude is higher than true altitude
The vertical distance of the aircraft above sea level
The vertical distance of the aircraft above the surface
The height above the standard datum plane
The altitude read directly from the altimeter
The vertical distance of the aircraft above the surface
The height above the standard datum plane
The height above the standard datum plane
The pressure altitude corrected for nonstandard temperature.
The altitude read directly from the altimeter
The indicated altitude corrected for position and installation error.
The altitude indicated when teh barometeric pressure scale is set to 29.92
The indicated altitude corrected for nonstandard temperature and pressure
If the altimeter has no mechanical error.
