Apr 7, 2017 · Class B aside, when will I know when to use AGL vs MSL? I know structures and terrain are depicted in both, so that's easy, big airspaces around airports are easy to figure out since it's the fraction-looking number.

Oct 29, 2019 · Above Ground Level, or AGL, describes the literal height above the ground over which you’re flying. Mean Sea Level, or MSL, is your true altitude or elevation. It’s the average height above standard sea level where the atmospheric pressure is measured in …

Sep 19, 2018 · @sar104 Isn't Litchi AGL referenced at the take off location? Take off was at 752m MSL, Terrain was raising at WP4 to ~840m MSL and still a little bit rising up to 855m MSL between WP4 and WP5. (Google Earth) The aircraft was flying straight at 91.4m above take-off point into elevated terrain.

Jun 9, 2021 · For example: If the topo map shows you are taking off from 600 ft. MSL (0 ft. on your drone display) and you then fly to an area on the map that is 100 ft. MSL the altitude on your drone would need to be between -500 ft. and -100 ft. to be legal (within 400 ft. AGL of that point).

Aug 31, 2019 · Federal airways from 1,200 AGL to 18,000 MSL within 4 miles (6 km) of the centerline of the airway are designated Class E airspace. Airspace at any altitude over FL600 (60,000 MSL) (the ceiling of Class A airspace) is designated Class E airspace.

Jul 1, 2020 · Practice Questions about MSL and AGL Understanding the difference between AGL and MSL is also important if you want to obtain a remote pilot certificate from the FAA.

May 26, 2020 · Altitude vs height - - - I can fly at 400 feet maximum altitude, but I can legally exceed that by 400 feet more when I fly over a tower of 700 feet height! So, for me I mostly interpret height as distance of measure from the ground to top of an object, whereas I interpret altitude as the distance between the ground to an object suspended in air above or below my …

Apr 24, 2022 · This is one of the rare areas in the contiguous US where Class E starts at 14,500’ MSL. Note that the darker edge of the shaded blue is toward the inside of the polygon. The faded side means Class E starts at 1200’ AGL. Of course there is not a lot of difference when you take in the elevation figures of 9^7, 10^1, and 10^6.

Feb 11, 2018 · My understanding is that altitude zones are MSL, not AGL. Lacking an altimeter and only having relative height above takeoff, how does the drone know you...

Jul 20, 2021 · Geez, how could ASL and AGL get so complicated? Now we should spend time discussing ground speed as opposed to air speed LOL! On another note. Belgium is a beautiful country. There are two "official" languages. Flemish and French with a small German speaking population. If you go you should visit Bastogne and the Battle of the Bulge memorial.
