Heh, you learn something new every day! Although the Q-codes are not part of the modern private pilot curriculum in the US, I've always wondered where they came from (I've only heard the old-timers and some of the glider pilots talk about them). But it's not clear to me if QNH was intentional or a backronym. --Ken
