Make temperature and pressure errors tangible. This trainer visually demonstrates how flying from high to low pressure, or warm to cold air, leaves the altimeter over-reading — the classic "look out below" adage.
You are LOWER than the altimeter shows — look out below.
Caution: the behaviour of the instruments and information shown is approximate, for illustration and study only, and may not reflect the exact readings of a real aircraft.
The altimeter is calibrated for the International Standard Atmosphere. When the real atmosphere is colder, or the pressure is lower than what you have set, the altimeter over-reads — your true altitude is lower than indicated. Hence the adage: high to low, hot to cold, look out below.
