Help me find transition altitude

Recommended Posts

I think that the only place to find it are the aerodrome charts (SID/STAR pages). It can also be found in ATIS because it can be sometimes changed. Sometimes it says TA: By ATC in the charts. That means that ATC will tell you the altitude.

Thanks, Branimir, I know it's on the charts. I just wondered if this information is also on the flight plan somewhere.

TA is a known published value.

It's the TL that will be notified by ATC since TL changes with ambient conditions and you need a buffer (transition layer) in order to separate QNH traffic from those flying with STD altimeter.
