??!!

Both have same baro setting?
Reading from the tooltip or the gauge needle?
Tooltips are to nearest 100 feet in RAF planes so one a/c at 90 feet and one at 105 feet will read 0 and 100 respectively.

Or the 109s are porked and next time I will run from a 109 at 25 feet and see what happens behind me
