• Position error — is one of the errors affecting the systems in an aircraft for measuring airspeed and altitude. [Kermode, A.C., Mechanics of Flight , 10th Edition – page 65] [”Of these errors the error in detection of static pressure is generally the most serious …   Wikipedia

• lag error — An error in a pressure altimeter when height changes are very rapid. The altimeter lags behind the actual height the altimeter over reads in a rapid descent and underreads in a very rapid climb. The higher the rate of change, the higher the error …   Aviation dictionary

• barometric error — An error in the pressure altimeter resulting from a difference between the prevalent barometric pressure and that in the standard atmosphere. The local barometric pressure is corrected to sea level on the subscale, or veedor counter (Kollsman… …   Aviation dictionary

• Pilot error — 1994 Fairchild Air Force Base B 52 crash, caused by flying the aircraft beyond its operational limits. This history is now used in military and civilian aviation environments as a case study in teaching crew resource management Pilot error… …   Wikipedia

• blockage error—altimeter — An error in a pressure altimeter resulting from the static vent from which static pressure pickup is taken being blocked. In this case, the height indicated would remain constant even if the aircraft height is altered. An alternate static source… …   Aviation dictionary

• installation error — An error in pressure instruments like the ASI (air speed indicator) and the altimeter caused by false static pressure in the immediate vicinity of an aircraft in flight. The error is corrected by the design of compensating pitot tubes or by… …   Aviation dictionary

• pressure error — An error in pressure instruments such as an ASI (air speed indicator) or an altimeter caused by false static pressure at the static port of an aircraft in flight. Also known as installation error or position error …   Aviation dictionary
