    QFE is a three letter acronym which can have meanings in aviation, in software development, and in network usage. It can refer to It can refer to QFE, a Q code used by pilots and air traffic controllers that refers to atmospheric pressure and altimeter settings

  3. Altimeter setting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altimeter_setting

    QFE - is the barometric altimeter setting that causes an altimeter to read zero when at the reference datum of a particular airfield (in practice, the reference datum is either an airfield center or a runway threshold). In ISA temperature conditions the altimeter will read the height above the airfield/runway in the vicinity of the airfield.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_code

    This is one of a set of articles on telegraphy. The Q-code is a standardised collection of three-letter codes that each start with the letter "Q". It is an operating signal initially developed for commercial radiotelegraph communication and later adopted by other radio services, especially amateur radio.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hotfix

    Microsoft Corporation used the terms hotfix or quick-fix engineering update (QFE) [2] [3] but has stopped in favor of new terminology. Updates are either delivered in the general distribution release (GDR) channel or the limited distribution release (LDR) channel – the latter synonymous with QFE. GDR updates receive extensive testing whereas ...

  7. Pressure altimeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_altimeter

    In aviation terminology, the regional or local air pressure at mean sea level (MSL) is called the QNH or "altimeter setting", and the pressure that will calibrate the altimeter to show the height above ground at a given airfield is called the QFE of the field. An altimeter cannot, however, be adjusted for variations in air temperature.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_level

    Flight levels [3] are described by a number, which is the nominal altitude, or pressure altitude, in hundreds of feet, and a multiple of 500 ft.Therefore, a pressure altitude of 32,000 ft (9,800 m) is referred to as "flight level 320".
