Default Re: how to find or calculate density altitude ...

If you a an iPod phone, there is an application for it:

http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/densi...313097113?mt=8

or

DA= 145442.16 X [ 1- (17.326 x Pa) / Tr ] 0.235

where:
* DA* = density altitude, feet
* Pa = actual pressure (station pressure), inches Hg
* Tr = temperature, deg R (deg F + 459.67)
