Since it is possible to fly without voice radio equipment, and given
that (if I understand correctly) pilots are supposed to have their
altimeters set correctly to a reference located not more than 100
miles from their position, how does an aircraft without a radio keep
its altimeter properly set as it travels?


Set it to field elevation of the departure airport before you take off. Or
if you want you can do a time distance formula, just point the nose
straight down and when your airspeed stabalizes note indicated altitude and
start time. The clock should stop on inpact, just multiply the time it
took by your airspeed, convert the distance to feet. Now find the
differance between your figure and the altitude you started time at and you
have your correction. Unfortunatly you dont die in a sim.
