Difference between Altimeter setting and Flight level

Altimeter setting vs. Flight level

Altimeter setting is the value of the atmospheric pressure used to adjust the sub-scale of a pressure altimeter so that it indicates the height of an aircraft above a known reference surface. In aviation and aviation meteorology, a flight level (FL) is defined as a vertical altitude at standard pressure, nominally expressed in hundreds of feet.

Similarities between Altimeter setting and Flight level

Altimeter setting and Flight level have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Altimeter, Flight level, METAR, QNH.
