As stated in the original message, I am still resolving issues with FAA legal. Caustic remarks aside, this is an issue with many pilots, and the issue is more than the words used in the current regulation. Tom Knauff What issue is there to resolve? Unless they contradicted 91.121(a)(1)(III) In the west, you cannot roll the altimeter down to zero, the knob does not adjust that far. And if you depart from an airfield at 1200MSL, and roll the altimeter to zero, you have to remember that you are reading 1200ft low, and when you climb through 16,800 as read on the altimeter, you just busted Class A ! We are under a Class B shelf, roll the altimeter down to zero, how do you know where your citing is as you climb under the shelf? BUSTED! T |
