Now that it is officially summer and blazing hot across the U.S., I tested both Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 (MSFS2020) and X-Plane 12 (XP12) for realism and aircraft performance with different hot ...
An E6B flight computer is a vital pilot's tool designed for calculating various flight parameters, including groundspeed, fuel burn, time en route, and density altitude, by aligning values on its ...
Despite what extraordinarily overpowered quadcopters suggest, the air pressure of whatever a flying machine flys at is extremely important. Pressure is dependent on altitude and temperature, and there ...

Altitude and barometric pressure are closely related. As altitude increases, barometric pressure decreases, or stated another way, barometric pressure is inversely proportional to altitude. This is ...
The combination of “hot and high” always has been a detriment to aircraft performance and safety. With excessively hot temperatures this summer, aircraft operators will have to take measures to reduce ...
