That's what a dual axis Bendix/King KAP 140 prevents... ;-)

flying that distance.. over water.. will result in pressure changes.. CAP140
flies on pressure?? if the pressure over distance is moving the wrong way...

Yup... that wonderful box will maintain you at whatever pressure
altitude you set it at..

High to Low.. Look Out Below!..

That would take a mighty inattentive pilot to let 200 feet go that close
to the surface without noticing...

"Gee, those white caps are looking much larger than 10 minutes ago...
must be an optical illusion."

I find it interesting the difference between this thread ("I need something to
go wrong with an airplane"... for a book) and a previous thread ("I need
something to go wrong with an airplane"... for a movie)

You have misread the request. He doesn't need for something to *actually*
go wrong with the airplane. He needs for the pilot to have a plausible
excuse while *pretending* something went wrong with the airplane.

The difference being, of course, that the original poster of the previous
thread had already decided a priori to have an airplane fail dramatically,
while the original poster of this thread intends (apparently) for the
airplane to operate in no unusual manner.
