The fuselage of most aircraft is not strong enough to withstand that pressure. The air pressure is very low at high altitudes, and if the inside pressure was set to 0 ft (an extremely high pressure), the fuselage would burst.

Why do you get out of breath more easily when you climb a mountain?

The air is thinner, there is less oxygen molecules per volume of air (the air is less dense) therefore to absorb the same amount of O2 into your blood at 4000ft as at 0ft altitude you have to breath more/ more deeply. Also, you're climbing a mountain (going uphill) which uses more energy than going flat as you have to work against gravity.


What is the difference of scfm and cfm?

SCFM is the amount (volume) of air that would happen if your air were at room temperature, and atmospheric pressure (0ft above sea level, 14.7psi). CFM (cubic feet per minute) is the amount (volume) of air that happens at the specific temperature and pressure. example: if you have a balloon that happens to be one cubic foot, and you are inside of a very hot, very high pressre room. when you walk out of the hot room, the flow rate is 1CFM, but because it is a balloon, when you take it outside the room it suddenly expands as it adjusts to outside (close to standard) conditions. So your balloon may be 3 or 4 SCFM. The two are interchangable, but when working in an industry that used flow rates heavily, it's much easier to note SCFM, because it has the added bonus of telling you temperature and pressure along with flow rate.


What is The difference between Decision Altitude and Decision Height?

Altitude is measured above sea level, Height is measured above ground level. An example would be an airfield that is on a hill would have and altitude of however many feet it is above sea level, where as it would have a height of 0ft, no matter how far above the sea level it is. Now a Decision Altitude is used for a precision approach ie an ILS or MLS. So for example the standard minimum Decision Height (ie above the airfield) for a Cat I approach is 200ft. Say for example that airfield was itself on a hill that was 500ft above sea level the DH would remain 200ft but the DA would be 500ft + 200ft = 700ft. If you had two altimeters on the flight deck one set to QNH ( the pressures setting at sea level) and one set to QFE (the pressure setting at the airfield) when you arrived at the Cat 1 minima the QFE altimeter would read 200ft and the QNH altimeter would read 700ft. Now if the question is actually what is the difference between Decision Altitude (DA) and Minimum Decision Altitude (MDA) the answer is sightly different. A DA is as answered above and is used on a Precision Approach (ie ILS) and the MDA is used on a Non Precision Approach (ie Loc, GP, VOR, NDB)
