In aviation and aviation meteorology, a flight level ( FL) is an aircraft's altitude at standard air pressure, expressed in hundreds of feet.
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).
Poziom lotu ( ang. Flight level) – powierzchnia baryczna o określonym ciśnieniu oddzielona od innych takich powierzchni o określoną różnicę ciśnienia i odniesiona do specyficznej wartości ciśnienia zwanego ciśnieniem standardowym o wartości 1013,25 hPa (760 mm Hg).
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.

10 mar 2024 · Flight Levels (FL): Here’s the definition of a Flight Level by the ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization): “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.”
Strictly speaking a flight level is an indication of pressure, not of altitude. Only above the transition level (which depends on the local QNH but is typically 4000 feet above sea level) are flight levels used to indicate altitude; below the transition level feet are used.
