SkaldDKO Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 Hello! Seems to be a problem. ATC controller always gives QFE pressure in InHg, not mmHg. Settings of metric system don't affect this.

StoliFlyer Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 Anyone know of a conversion table between inHg and mmHg, so that one can drop it into the kneeboard and use it as a reference ?
TurboHog Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 1 inch = 25.4mm 29.92 inHg = 760mmHg You can use a calculator for the time being. I'm sure this issue will be fixed. 'Frett'
StoliFlyer Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 Did a bit of thinking about this. Aircraft operating on airspace whose ATC uses inHg would need a conversion table, as atc instructions would all be in inHg, and would be responsibility of an aircraft's crew to do the conversions. I would guess NATO countries with legacy soviet equipment probably already use those. I made a table, but apparently there is some other bug that affects the accuracy of the pressure settings (http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=130908&page=2)pressure_conversions-1.0.0-inHg-to-mmHg.pdf
