Piper PA-38-112 User Manual

Indicated The number actually read from an
Pressure Altitude altimeter when the barometric subscale has
been set to 29.92 inches of mercury (1013
millibars).
Pressure Altitude Altitude measured from standard sea-level
pressure (29.92 in. Hg) by a pressure or
barometric altimeter. It is the indicated
pressure altitude corrected for position and
instrument error. In this handbook,
altimeter instrument errors are assumed
to be zero.
Station Pressure Actual atmospheric pressure at field
elevation.
Wind The wind velocities recorded as variables on
the charts of this handbook are to be
understood as the headwind or tailwind
components of the reported winds.
(c) Power Terminology
Takeoff Power Maximum power permissible for takeoff.
Maximum Con- Maximum power permissible continuously
tinuous Power during flight.
Maximum Climb Maximum power permissible during
Power climb.
Maximum Cruise Maximum power permissible during
Power cruise.
