I was reading through the manual today, and I noticed on Page 92 the following statement.

QNE
This height is based on the standard pressure p=1023.25 mbar

Shouldn't this be 1013.25 mbar?????

I was using this link taken from another post.

Should it not also be hPa these days? Hope you are not reading it whilst you are towing John.

A good point about the hPa, Dave!

And I'm certainly not reading while towing today with a very gusty 20+ knot wind that has just gone crosswind (Rather than Coolwind)
