Millibar is used to express what kind of pressure?
- Pitot pressure.
- Ambient pressure.
- Barometric pressure.
Explanation
The millibar (hectopascal) is the unit used for atmospheric/ambient pressure, such as the altimeter subscale setting. Pitot pressure is a dynamic quantity normally handled differently, so ambient pressure is what the millibar scale expresses.

Why does not millibar express barometric pressure?
