Summary

Description
English: A Kollsman-type barometric aircraft altimeter set at 75 ft (23 m) showing a pressure of 29.87 in (1011.5 hPa). This altimeter is mounted in a console at a radio station at Cambridge Bay Airport, Nunavut, Canada.
Dansk: Nærbillede af en højdemåler af den type der bruges i mindre fly. Instrumentet har tre visere, der aflæses omtremt som urvisere:
  • Den lange viser, som her peger på "knap 1", angiver antal hundrede engelske fod, i dette eksempel ca. 75 fod, eller 23 meter.
  • Den korte, brede viser angiver antal tusinde fod
  • Den lange, tynde viser der ender i en lille trekant øverst, angiver antal titusinder fod. Højdemåleren virker ved at måle det statiske lufttryk, så for at kunne vise korrekt højde, skal den kende lufttrykket ved havets overflade. Man drejer på knappen nederst til venstre, indtil tallet i ruden til højre svarer til det relevante lufttryk.
