Question

Which of the following best defines Density Altitude?

• A. Pressure altitude corrected for non-standard temperature
• B. The height of the aircraft above the Ground (AGL)
• C. The altitude indicated on the altimeter when set to the local altimeter setting
• D. The vertical distance of the aircraft above the standard datum plane

Hint:

Important aviation altitudes: \[ \boxed{ \begin{aligned} \text{AGL} &\rightarrow \text{Height above ground} \text{Pressure Altitude} &\rightarrow \text{Altitude above standard datum} \text{Density Altitude} &\rightarrow \text{Pressure altitude corrected for temperature} \end{aligned} } \]

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A
