The altimeter shows the aircraft’s altitude above sea-level by measuring the difference between the pressure in a stack of aneroid capsules inside the altimeter and the atmospheric pressure obtained through the static system. It is adjustable for local barometric pressure which must be set correctly to obtain accurate altitude readings. As the aircraft ascends‚ the capsules expand and the static pressure drops‚ causing the altimeter to indicate a higher altitude. The opposite effect occurs when descending

In my personal opinion‚ the term “victimless crime” is a bit of an oxymoron. I have come to find out‚ opinions on this topic seem to be split right down the middle. People either believe that if a crime has no victim is not a crime at all; the only real victims are the offenders because the harm is self-inflicted.
