No, it is not. The pressure decreases as the altitude increases.

Is air pressure greater at high altitudes or low altitudes?
It is greater at a lower altitude.
What are cabins with normal air pressure at high altitudes?
high altitude chambers
Why one of the windows in the Flying At High Altitudes Breaks?
as their is high pressure inside and low pressure outside and air moves
Are parachutes faster at high altitudes or low altitudes?
it is faster at a higher altitude because there are less air pressure when you're away from the Earth. There are more air pressure as you come to Earth so it becomes slower.
What does air pressure do as altitudes?
Air pressure increases as altitude decreases.
Does air exert any pressure?
There is about 2 ton of air on every square foot of the Earth (less at high altitudes)
Which altitudes would have the lowest air pressure and why?
The highest altitudes have the lowest air pressure. Air pressure increases as altitude decreases. Above sea level is lower pressure; below sea level is higher pressure.
Why density of air decreases with increase in height?
The density of air decreases with increasing altitude because air at high altitudes is under less pressure.
Why does density of air decrease with increase in height?
The density of air decreases with increasing altitude because air at high altitudes is under less pressure.
What causes thin air?
Thin air is caused by low oxygen pressure at high altitudes. The lack of oxygen makes the air less dense.
How does the pressure at sea level change as the distance from earth increases?
Air pressure reduces, as height is gained above sea-level, because there is less air at high altitudes.
Why does air pressure increase at lower altitudes?
The air molecules have mass. When a lot of molecues are piled up,one on top the other, the pressure increases because of that.So air pressure increases at lower altitudes.
