Density Altitude Thermometer Available from Sporty's

Density Altitude can reach critical levels seriously affecting aircraft performance especially during the summer months. Now it's easy to estimate density altitude prior to takeoff with Sporty's Density Altitude Thermometer. Measuring 18" in diameter, this large, easy-to-read thermometer displays temperature in both Celsius and Fahrenheit. Based upon the current temperature and field elevation, the thermometer will also display the estimated density altitude. All you have to do is specify your airport's field elevation when ordering and a custom decal is affixed to the thermometer to display the estimated density altitude for your airport. This device is a great enhancement to any airport and transient pilots will find it especially useful upon arriving or departing an unfamiliar field where performance is critical. The Density Altitude Thermometer [B3511A] is available for $34.95 and may be ordered at sportys.com or by calling Sporty's at 1.800.SPORTYS or 513.735.9000 or by faxing 513.735.9200.
