datum has been selected, all moment arms and the location of CG range are measured from this point. Decompression sickness. A condition where the low pressure at high altitudes allows bubbles of nitrogen to form in the blood and joints ... density altitude is lower than pressure altitude. This is an important altitude because it is directly related to the airplane’s performance. Designated pilot examiner (DPE).
