The altimeter pressure subscale is set from the local aerodrome QNH to the standard pressure setting of 1013.2 hPa (29.92 inHg), expressing vertical position in Flight Levels (FL). The altimeter subscale remains on local QNH until reaching the assigned cruising altitude, regardless of transition altitude. The altimeter is adjusted to local QFE to indicate height above aerodrome elevation throughout the entire climb phase. The altimeter setting is maintained at standard 1013.2 hPa on the ground and only changed to QNH when crossing 10,000 ft MSL.
