Altimeters of this type are generally used for pressure-pattern and jet-stream flying along with bombing, due to their high altitude capability. PRESSURE COMPUTERS To enable reporting stations to calculate pressure information in support of aviation re- quirements, several types of computers have been devised to meet these needs. Two of these computers, the Pressure Reduction Computer CP-402/UM, and the Density Altitude Computer CP-718/UM, are discussed in the following paragraphs. PRESSURE REDUCTION COMPUTER CP-402/UM The Pressure Reduction Computer, CP- 402/UM, is primarily used for computing sea level pressure and altimeter settings from the observed station pressure at sites that do not have a constant reduction factor computed and authorized. It may also be used to compute. Figure 2-11.—Pressure reduction CP-402/UM. computer 30.
