We started up the engine, got the weather, asked the tower for our instrument flight plan, and began to taxi from the T-hangars on the east side of the field down the familiar route of “Hotel, Echo” to runway 18 right for a departure to the north with a turn to the east.

It’s one thing to understand what density altitude is, but it’s another to be able to explain it in a way that a student can understand and apply correctly.

Waypoints have a 5 character ID that will be recognized by most flight planning software and GPS navigators. Northbound general aviation corridor altitudes are 11,500′ or 13,500′; southbound altitudes are 10,500′ or 12,500′ [as of June, 2021 – check a current chart for changes].

And the finest example of a Cirrus SR22 is not going to want to lift a full load out of a backcountry strip on a warm afternoon with a density altitude reading five digits. Too many pilots have believed the brochure brag of a 700-mile range and have flight planned accordingly, to their eventual regret.

The airplane’s engine, propeller, and wings, which have struggled all summer against the ravages of high temperatures and density altitude, are now in their happy place. Roughly translated, it says when three significant risk factors are present during a flight, we might need to rethink our flight plan.

To properly use your performance charts, you need to be able to figure out the pressure altitude, and understand what that meansagain, the one and only time during your training that this is strictly required. From pressure altitude, you can move to density altitude by correcting for non-standard temperature.
