Altimeter Setting
Asked by: Mike Urban 6707 views Aircraft Systems, Commercial Pilot, Flight Instructor, General Aviation, Instrument Rating, Private Pilot, Student Pilot
altimeter setting must be adjusted as the flight progresses from one station to the next. If ATC service is not available along the route of the flight to update the Kollsman window, what would be the maximum distance to trust the previous setting? I also want to know if there is any time validity in case I don't have any means of updating the previous setting.
