One formula in the CAE Oxford Book (ATPL )which helped me was the Formula True Altitude = Indicated Altitude +27(or30) × ( Actual QNH minus QNH set on Altimeter). This formula helped me understand and solve various altimetry problems
brilliant video. somebody else said the best way to remember this aswell is QNH IS NAUTICAL HEIGHT. and THE QFE FOR FIELD ELEVATION. so the NH and the FE allows me to distinguish the differences.
If QNH is set, the altimeter will show 0 feet at msl, If QFE is set, the altimeter will show 0 feet on arp (aerodrome reference point) you could request QFE on threshold to show 0 feet on touch down.
Merry Christmas Capt Gabriel...All The Best for you.....🎄🎄🎄
Many thanks! I wish a Merry Christmas and a Happy New year to you and your loved ones!
Thank you for this video.😊 As I had requested you for the same! BTW will we be seeing you in the PILOT EXPO?🤔
You are very welcome!! I won't be at the expo

Great!! Thanks for watching!
Very clear information, as usual! Thank you and enjoy your holidays!
You are very welcome! Thanks for watching!
Actually standard pressure is to 1013,25 hPa 👍

I don't understand how it's possible to set the 1013,5 pressure when the plane is up in the sky.
1013,25hPa 👍
Good. Just one question. Is the formula QNH=QFE+Alt(feets)/27 Correct?
If QNH is set, the altimeter will show 0 feet at msl,
If QFE is set, the altimeter will show 0 feet on arp (aerodrome reference point) you could request QFE on threshold to show 0 feet on touch down.
