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".
He convinced a corporation to finance a barrel drop of 180 feet (55 m) from the top of the Houston Astrodome into a tank of water to pay for his project.

These considerations outweigh the convenient divisibility of the number 360. One complete turn (360°) is equal to 2 π radians, so 180° is equal to π radians, or equivalently, the degree is a mathematical constant: 1° = π ⁄ 180. One turn (corresponding to a cycle or revolution) is equal to 360°.
