Appendix A Altitude Tables

This document contains two tables providing altitude and atmospheric data using both British Engineering (BE) units and Système International (SI) units. The tables give values for pressure, temperature, and density at various altitudes under standard, cold, hot, and tropical atmospheric conditions. The data ranges from 0 to 100,000 feet or 0 to 100 kilometers altitude in increments of 1,000 feet or 0.25 kilometers.
