As the aircraft – arriving from Blagoveshchensk – descended, its crew set the altimeter pressure reference to the sea-level QNH figure of 751mmHg (1002hPa). The instrument approach chart for Tynda ...
Atmospheric pressure, particularly the altimeter setting, is the most crucial yet underappreciated weather element for pilots, enabling accurate altitude determination, especially under IFR. Altimeter ...
Investigators have determined that the crew of an Etihad Airways Boeing 787-10 did not set the correct destination pressure reference for the altimeter before the twinjet dipped far below the ...
