ah,yes RVSM....Hot_Charlie wrote:Ours are checked an logged on the ground (on the VC10 that's both pilots precision digital altimeters (with either QFE or QNH set depending on the location), the analogue standby (QNH)) by the Nav. As you would expect they are then checked (but not logged) before again take off (primarily to ensure both primarys are set correctly), and then on each altimeter setting change after that and before landing. The only other time they are logged after that is on entry into RVSM airspace, where they are checked and compared along with the standby to ensure RVSM compliance (+/-200ft).DispatchDragon wrote:Dont know what the RAF goes by - but we have to do a static check if there is a split of 150 feet or more
