Altimeter recalibrate QNH

Postby Loco » Thu Dec 27, 2012 12:52 pm

Hi guys

I have an old analogue ALT and it's QNH is way out compared to the rest of the guys at our field

Is it possible to fix/recalibrate it's QNH?

Many thanks

Yes it is possible, assuming that it is of reasonable quality. I had mine done some years ago at Virginia, it was quite expensive because it was done by an AMO, but there must be some guys around who can do this for NTCA.

Hi anthonyhugo

Do you have a picture of the Alt, if it is a 3" one I can help. Just fly to my runway(rooiwal powerstation 30min from rhino park) and will adjust it for you NO CHARGE :wink:
