What Does CALT Stand For?
CALT stands for Clearance Altitude
CALT, or Clearance Altitude, refers to the minimum altitude that an aircraft must maintain to ensure safe separation from any obstacles, terrain, or other air traffic below. This altitude is crucial for flight safety and is determined based on the specific flight path, regulatory requirements, and environmental considerations. It helps pilots navigate safely during ascent, descent, and en route operations.
