All this information is very helpful... I thank you all. Needing to account for
Transition Altitudes and Levels in some potential software, I will take this all into account. It wasn't stated directly, but can I presume these altitudes are always a multiple of 100 feet? (In airspaces where english system altitudes and metric system barometers are used). |

Needing to account for Transition Altitudes and Levels in some potential software, I will take this all into account. It wasn't stated directly, but can I presume these altitudes are always a multiple of 100 feet? (In airspaces where english system altitudes and metric system barometers are used). Yes, flight levels are always in hundreds of feet where the Blue Table (altitudes in ft, other units ICAO standard) is used. If you're writing software, the following may or may not be relevant: the definition of transition *level* varies from state to state. In some cases, it is the lowest flight level multiple of 5 above the transition altitude, in some it's the lowest multiple of 10, and in others it's the lowest IFR level with standard separation (1000 ft) from the transition altitude.
