qfe - never used it. like has been said - do the maths off the plate, and add 1000 to airfield elevation - bingo there's the circuit height. as all kiwis know, we can get 'area qnh' from christchurch or auckland control, which is good enough for all those unattended strips. i'd be reluctant to be flying out of somewhere like taupo (elev. 1335), with someone flying south on qfe, me flying in north on qnh. ouch
