Above Reference Threshold Elevation (Arte)

Above Reference Threshold Elevation, or ARTE, is an important concept in aviation. It relates to the Definition Decision Height (DH) and other height references that are crucial for precision approaches. These references are based on something called Threshold Elevation (THRE). In simpler terms, ARTE helps pilots know how high they should be when approaching a runway. By understanding these measurements, pilots can ensure safer landings and better navigation during their flights.
