[QUOTE="Timber338, post: 965886, member: 33822"] I think it's really much more simple to directly input the station pressure... the actual/absolute pressure right where you are standing. Make sure you choose "pressure is absolute" or whatever the option is to turn off elevation. As Riley pointed out make sure your weather meter is outputting absolute pressure. Depending on the software you are using, some programs will the ignore the elevation input field while others will not... I just leave mine set at zero. It just doesn't make sense to me to use a corrected pressure, as the pressure will have been adjusted as though it were at sea level, and then when you run your trajectory, it will be adjusted again to correct for your particular elevation. lots of rounding off going on in all the calculations and the output solution just seems messy. The reality is if you input the numbers correctly using corrected pressure, your trajectory will still be accurate. [/QUOTE]
