What is operational Altitude

What is operational Altitude

]

how ever high the plane is operating at.

[NONAME]

I mean what is the standard operational Altitude aprox. in Ft.

['CaneFreak]

1,000 ft

[WindRunner]

For an invest . . . 1000-1500 feet.

[JonathanBelles]

500-2000ft I think.

[Andy_L]

10,000 ft

I don't believe thats correct....approximately 1500 feet is the norm isn't it?? I know they sample at various altitudes....but i think you'll find 1500 is normal. Its also measured in meters on the HDOBS

[pojo]

MAX height on Invests is 1500ft.

[WindRunner]

Wow . . . I'm glad we're all so aware here.

FYI . . . 10,000 feet is for hurricanes (700mb level)
850mb level (I forget how many feet) is typical TS, though this is the one that will vary the most.
Anywhere from 1,000 to 1,500 feet is typical in invests and weak TS's.

This mission . . . it's ~270m, which would be approximately 1000 ft.

For an invest . . . 1000-1500 feet.

sorrry...this is a low level invest...so you are correct i do believe...for true TCs it is 10000 ft i believe.

[Lowpressure]

MAX height on Invests is 1500ft.

What changes with respect to winds/ conditions found? They enter an invest and find 45kts- does that change that flight plan?

[Lowpressure]

MAX height on Invests is 1500ft.

What changes with respect to winds/ conditions found? They enter an invest and find 45kts- does that change that flight plan? Or, is it not enough wind to matter?

yes and no.... if they find 45kt winds they'll pass that along to CARCAH and its his decision on whether they ascend up to 5000ft or not.

[Lowpressure]

Thanks POJO.

Wow . . . I'm glad we're all so aware here.

FYI . . . 10,000 feet is for hurricanes (700mb level)
850mb level (I forget how many feet) is typical TS, though this is the one that will vary the most.
Anywhere from 1,000 to 1,500 feet is typical in invests and weak TS's.

This mission . . . it's ~270m, which would be approximately 1000 ft.

10,000ft (700mb) for Hurricanes
5,000ft (850mb) for TS and weak Hurricanes
1,500ft (~1000-925mb) for LLI, TD and weak TS.

these are MAX altitudes.

['CaneFreak]

thanks pojo and sorry for any confusion i caused...i was thinking this was a TC already for some reason but its NOT. So yeah....thanks...it might be...but we dont know yet..

1,000 ft

Wait, I said 1000 feet. Where is everyone getting 10,000 feet from?

Is there a glare on everyone's monitors? LOL
