Since static pressure changes with altitude and weather, the static port provides a constant reading of the current atmospheric pressure. The atmospheric, or static pressure, varies with altitude and weather. The altimeter is the only instrument in small aircraft that gives the pilot altitude information.

Postaccident examination of the engine revealed no evidence of mechanical malfunction or failure that would have precluded normal operation, however, the weather conditions at the time of the accident were conducive to the formation of serious carburetor icing at idle power. The aircraft collided with a berm.

Rather, it is affected by many factors, such as weather conditions and the presence of obstacles. Examples of information that can be communicated by an FSS include weather advisories, traffic advisories, navigational aids, or information from military bases or homeland security. BVLOS is not defined by any specific distance.

Living among the Great Lakes means that the weather risks that I find most concerning cycle with the seasons; icing when it's cold, thunderstorms when it's hot. Both were immediately on board, but the weather was not. Weather conditions enabled capturing some magnificent images along the route, familiar as it was.

Even slowed by a 25 knot headwind, the airplane still saved time. From flight planning, I knew that we would experience rain, instrument meteorological conditions (IMC), and darkness. We learned the next day that a circuit breaker for the weather sensing instrumentation tripped, but the transmitter still worked.

This is often the result of the aircraft picking up excessive airspeed as a result of pilot disorientation in instrument meteorological conditions (IMC), followed by an abrupt pitch-up after exiting the bottom of the cloud. Never exceed speed (Vne) for the V-35 is 192 knots. Those are the things we don’t know.
