Altitude Performance

Altitude Performance is a performance metric that characterizes the variation in thrust, fuel consumption, and efficiency of a turbojet engine as a function of atmospheric altitude, distinguishing it from sea-level or off-design performance metrics by accounting for changes in ambient pressure, temperature, and air density.
