March 29Mar 29 ATC "descend and maintain minus 1.000" WHAT ??? today, enroute VFR from KORS to 11S in the KingAir 350i "Good day" were the last words heard of Maule 635 😀😇💥 W T F (F as in Flightsimulator) MSFS 2024, beta 5, 1.7.16.0 Edited March 29Mar 29 by turbomax AMD 7800X3D, Windows 11, Gigabyte X670 AORUS Elite AX Motherboard, 64GB DDR5 G.SKILL Trident Z5 NEO RGB (AMD Expo), RTX 4090, Samsung 980 PRO M.2 NVMe SSD 2 TB PCIe 4.0, Samsung 980 PRO M.2 NVMe SSD 1 TB PCIe 4.0, 4K resolution 50" TV @60Hz, VR: Pimax Crystal Light + HP Reverb G2 @ 90 Hz, Honeycomb Bravo Throttle Quadrant, be quiet 1000W PSU, Noctua NH-U12S chromax.black air cooler. 60-130 fps. no CPU overclocking. very nice.

March 30Mar 30 Author my fault, I should have known the Maule was about to land at Bar Yehuda 🤣 The lowest altitude airport in the world is: ✈️ Bar Yehuda Airfield Elevation: about −1,240 feet (−378 meters) below sea level Location: Near the Dead Sea This makes it the lowest airport on Earth by elevation. It’s a small airfield mainly used for private and regional aviation rather than major commercial flights. For comparison (commercial airports below sea level): ✈️ Amsterdam Airport Schiphol Elevation: about −11 feet (−3 meters) One of the busiest international airports below sea level So while Schiphol is the most famous major low-altitude airport, Bar Yehuda Airfield holds the absolute record worldwide.

ATC (Air Traffic Control) Controllers issue instructions based on: Separation (keeping aircraft safely apart) Traffic flow and sequencing Airspace structure and procedures They use pressure altitude (via standard altimeter settings), not performance-based altitude like density altitude.
