16 / 20
The altimeter indicates 17 000 ft with a subscale-setting of 1013,25 mb. QNH is 1031 hPa. The pressure altitude of the aircraft is:
  • A
    16 460 ft
  • B
    17 540 ft
  • C
    17 000 ft
  • D
    527 hPa
The altimeter indicates a PRESSURE ALTITUDE, whenever its sub-scale is set to 1013.25 hPa. The OAT has no impact on this definition, therefore the altimeter will indicate 17 000 ft.
