6 paź 2012 · Calculating hPa pressure level/Flight Level. I'm studying met and whilst I was at my brush-up in Bristol we was told to basically memorise the hPa levels for certain flight levels. I.e. FL50= 850 hPa. FL10= 700 hPa. FL180= 500 hPa. FL300= 300 hPa.

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.
25 sty 2024 · A flight level (FL) is a standard pressure altitude, expressed as three numbers. Aircraft flying on flight levels all measure their altitude from the same pressure setting, 1013.2 Hpa (or 29.92 InHg). This is based on the principle of something called the International Standard Atmosphere.
In aviation and aviation meteorology, a flight level ( FL) is an aircraft's altitude at standard air pressure, expressed in hundreds of feet.
Flight level and standard pressure. A Flight Level (FL) is the vertical distance of an aircraft above the ISOBARIC SURFACE of 1013.25hPa (hecto Pascal) or 29.92 in Hg (inches of Mercury). An ISOBARIC SURFACE is the invisible landscape that connects all points with the same atmospheric pressure.

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.
