Types of Altitude To fundamentally understand density altitude, you need to understand the five types of altitude used in aviation: Indicated altitude: the altitude read on the altimeter (regardless of altimeter setting) Pressure Altitude: the indicated altitude of the altimeter when it is set to 29.92 A density altitude chart.

When flying an airplane, you become a part of the air around you. The altimeter setting for the aerodrome is 29.93 As a good general rule, the smaller the difference between the outside air temperature (OAT), and the dew point, the more likely it is that a cloud will form, and the lower its base will be. inches of mercury.
