QFE - A method of setting the altimeter to compensate for changes in barometric pressure
and runway elevation. Pilot receives information from airfield and adjusts his
altimeter accordingly and it will read zero altitude at touchdown on the runway.
QNH - The more common method of setting the altimeter to compensate for changes in
barometric pressure. Pilot receives information from airfield, adjusts his altimeter
accordingly and the altimeter will read airfield elevation at touchdown.
