The latest and most appropriate Regional Pressure Setting value is to be used for checking terrain clearance in flight. Aircraft flying in a Control Zone or TMA at an Altitude at or below the Transition Altitude will be given the appropriate QNH setting in their clearance to enter the Zone/TMA.
The flight levels correspond to the altitude in 100-ft increments (hectofeet) above the pressure surface of 1,013.25 hPa calculated according to the standard atmosphere. For example, FL050 is the pressure surface 5,000 ft above the pressure surface 1,013.25 hPa.
Flight Level (FL) A surface of constant atmosphere pressure which is related to a specific pressure datum, 1013.2hPa, and is separated from other such surfaces by specific pressure intervals. Altitude above sea-level in 100 feet units measured according to a standard atmosphere.
25 sty 2024 · Image: C. Lomas. Aircraft measure altitude using their altimeter. Traditionally, the altimeter is a pressure-based instrument (i.e. an instrument that measures the air pressure outside) and is either calibrated in Hectopascals ‘Hpa’ or Inches of Mercury ‘InHg’.
Flight levels are usually designated in writing as FLxxx, where xxx is a two- or three-digit number indicating the pressure altitude in units of 100 feet (30 m). In radio communications, FL290 would be pronounced as "flight level two nine(r) zero".
