What is pressure altitude?
A) The indicated altitude corrected for position and
installation error.
B) The altitude indicated when the barometric pressure
scale is set to 29.92.
C) The indicated altitude corrected for nonstandard
temperature and pressure. - ANSWER-B) The altitude
indicated when the barometric pressure scale is set to
29.92.
Pressure altitude is the airplane's height above the
standard datum plane of 29.92" Hg. If the altimeter is set
to 29.92"Hg. The indicated altitude is the pressure altitude.
Altimeter setting is the value to which the barometric
pressure scale of the altimeter is set so the altimeter
indicates
A) calibrated altitude at field elevation.
B) absolute altitude at field elevation.
,2|Page
C) true altitude at field elevation. - ANSWER-C) true
altitude at field elevation.
Altimeter setting is the value to which the scale of the
pressure altimeter is set so that the altimeter indicates true
altitude at field elevation.
Under what condition is indicated altitude the same as true
altitude?
A) I the altimeter has no mechanical error.
B) When at sea level under standard conditions.
C)When at 18,00 feet MSL with the altimeter set at 29.92.
- ANSWER-B) When at sea level under standard
conditions.Indicated altitude ( what your read on your
altimeter) approximates the true altitude ( distance above
mean sea level) when standard conditions exist and your
altimeter is properly calibrated.
Under what condition is pressure altitude and density
altitude the same value?
A) At sea level, when the temperature is 0°F.
B) When the altimeter has no installation error.

C) At standard temperature. - ANSWER-C) At standard
temperature.
Pressure altitude and density altitude are the same when
temperature is standard.
Under which condition will pressure altitude be equal to
true altitude?
A) When the atmospheric pressure is 29.92"Hg.
B) When standard atmospheric conditions exist.
C) When indicated altitude is equal to the pressure
altitude. - ANSWER-B) When standard atmospheric
conditions exist.
Pressure altitude equals true altitude when standard
atmospheric conditions (29.92" Hg and 15°C at sea level)
exist.
If it is necessary to set the altimeter from 29.15 to 29.85,
what change occurs?
A) 70-foot increase in indicated altitude.
, 4|Page
B) 70-foot increase in density altitude.
C) 700-foot increase in indicated altitude. - ANSWER-C)
700-foot increase in indicated altitude.
When increasing the altimeter setting form 29.15 to 29.85,
the indication altitude increases by 700 feet. The altimeter-
indicated altitude moves in the same direction as the
altimeter setting and changes about 1,000 feet for every
change in 1"Hg in the altimeter setting.
If a pilot changes the altimeter setting from 30.11 to 29.96,
what is the approximate change in indication?
A) Altimeter will indicate .15"Hg higher.
B) Altimeter will indicate 150 feet higher.
C) Altimeter will indicate 150 feet lower - ANSWER-C)
Altimeter will indicate 150 feet lower
Atmospheric pressure decreases approximately 1" of Hg
(Mercury) for every 1,000 feet of altitude gained. As an
altimeter setting is changed, the change in altitude
indication changes the same way (i.e., approximately
1,000 feet for every 1" change in altimeter setting) and in
the same direction ( i.e., lowers the altitude reading). Thus,
