Density Altitude

Density Altitude


Cold Dry Air  is MORE Dense - Provide MORE power trust and lift

Hot Humid Air is LESS Dense - Provide LESS power thrust and lift


Density Altitude is where the Aircraft Performance is Calculate


Hot and Humid Day /High Density Altitude - Aircraft Behaves as it is at a higher than true Altitude

True Altitude 

Cold and Dry Day/ Lowe Density Altitude - Air Craft Behaves as it is at a lower than True Altitude

 

Low Density Altitude 

Denser Air/More Performance/ Shorter take off Roll /Highter Climb Rate


High Density Altitude 

Thinner Air/Less Performance/ Longer Take off Roll / Lower Climb Rate
