Is it safe to take an aneroid barometer on an airplane?
Commercial aircraft are pressurized to the equivalent of 8,000 ft of altitude, or lower. That means air pressure in the cabin is lower, not higher. Many people in Colorado live at 8,000 ft. Your barometer should be fine.However, while you could bring a dial type barometer aboard the aircraft, a mercury barometer could not be (hazard of the mercury in it.)
What is the most commonly used barometer?
