Pressure altitude — In aviation, pressure altitude is the indicated altitude when an altimeter is set to an agreed baseline pressure setting. This setting 101,325 Pa, equivalent to 1013.25 millibar (or hectopascals), or 29.92 inches Hg is equivalent to the air… … 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
