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".
Fort Smith Airport (IATA: YSM, ICAO: CYSM) is located near Fort Smith, Northwest Territories, Canada. Runway 03/21 has no winter service. Runway 03/21 has no winter service. The Fort Smith (District) Heliport is located southeast of the airport.
A minimum off-route altitude (MORA) provides a quick way for an aircraft pilot to read the minimum altitude required for terrain and obstacle clearance. MORAs give at least 1,000 feet altitude clearance above terrain and obstacles such as radio masts, and 2,000 feet where the terrain and obstacles exceed 5,000 feet. [1]
