exemple 209 Yes, if the competent authority defines the transition altitude as 3000 ft or higher. — Cruising levels for either all or part of a flight are expressed either as flight levels or altitudes in very general terms aircraft flying at low levels use altitude based on the local area pressure or qnh as the altimeter’s datum setting this provides elevation above mean sea level and is used primarily to remain clear of the surface but is also used for separation in controlled airspace the transition altitude is the altitude at which aircraft switch from using atmospheric pressure qnh to a standard pressure setting when transitioning from the terminal area to en route flight in this case if the competent authority defines the transition altitude as 3000 ft or higher then cruising at 2600 ft would be allowed as it falls below the transition altitude if the pilot is flying above the transition altitude s/he must fly flight levels Yes, if the competent authority defines the transition altitude as 3000 ft or higher.
