An interesting web site with a relative horsepower calculator for various
density altitudes.
http://wahiduddin.net/calc/calc_hp_abs.htm
Let's see - If I set my altimeter to the actual altitude, I read the
pressure from the colesman window? Or, I set 29.92 in the window to
get the pressure altitude? - man, it's been too long, but with pressure,
temperature, and relative humidity, this calculator gives some answers
(not sure how good.) I'm sure someone on the list can figure out the
Oxygen content.
Thanks,
Jim W.

Anyone that would like a print out of a density altitude chart from a
helicopter flight manual, let me know off line and I'll fax you one.
