Altitude — For other uses, see Altitude (disambiguation). Not to be confused with Attitude. Altitude or height is defined based on the context in which it is used (aviation, geometry, geographical survey, sport, and more). As a general definition, altitude… … Wikipedia
pressure-pattern flying — A technique of long range navigation followed until the early 1960s. In this technique, isobar patterns provided the basis for flight planning to make maximum use of tailwinds. The pilot used the pressure and radio altimeter for this purpose to… … Aviation dictionary

Atmospheric pressure — Air pressure redirects here. For the pressure of air in other systems, see pressure. Atmospheric pressure is the force per unit area exerted against a surface by the weight of air above that surface in the Earth s atmosphere. In most… … Wikipedia
Psychrometric constant — The psychrometric constant, gamma = , ralates the partial pressure of water in air to the air temperature. This lets one interpolate actual vapor pressure from paired dry and wet thermometer bulb temperature readings [cite book |last=Allen |first … Wikipedia
cabin altitude — The pressure altitude corresponding to pressure inside the cabin or, in the case of combat aircraft, the cockpit. Above a certain altitude, the crew tries to maintain a constant cabin altitude. Typical cabin altitude for combat and passenger… … Aviation dictionary
Static pressure — * In the design and operation of aircraft, static pressure is the air pressure in the aircraft’s static pressure system.* In fluid dynamics, static pressure is the pressure at a nominated point in a fluid. Many authors use the term static… … Wikipedia
