An Air Data Inertial Reference Unit (ADIRU) is a key component of the integrated Air Data Inertial Reference System (ADIRS), which supplies air data (airspeed, angle of attack and altitude) and inertial reference (position and attitude) information to the pilots' electronic flight instrument system displays as well as other systems on the aircraft such as the engines, autopilot, aircraft ...
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.
Diamond DA42 Twin Star cockpit with Garmin G1000. The Garmin G1000 is an electronic flight instrument system (EFIS) typically composed of two display units, one serving as a primary flight display, and one as a multi-function display.
As I understand it, a famous example is Funchal Airport, where the altimeter reading suddenly drops quite a bit when the airplane comes over the runway from the sea, which is quite a bit lower. (And if you bank 90° during approach, an incorrect altimeter reading will be the least of your problems.) ospalh 21:14, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
For some, however, it's just 30 minutes to 5 minutes, she adds. About 80% of people who get migraine attacks will have prodrome symptoms, Singh says, "but they can be subtle. Not everybody will ...

The greater the altitude, the lower the pressure. When a barometer is supplied with a nonlinear calibration so as to indicate altitude, the instrument is a type of altimeter called a pressure altimeter or barometric altimeter. A pressure altimeter is the altimeter found in most aircraft, and skydivers use wrist-mounted versions for similar ...
