aeronautical charts for appropriate minimum clearance altitudes.
WARNING:
could vary significantly from the altitude displayed by pressure altimeters, such as the GDC 74A Air Data
Computer, or other altimeters in aircraft. GPS altitude should never be used for vertical navigation. Always
use pressure altitude displayed by the G900X PFD or other pressure altimeters in aircraft.
