I'm quite aware that in the UK QFE is used extensively in civvie land. My question about the military was in response to XL319's response of "except the military" in response to IO540's statement "use QNH as the rest of the world does".

Perhaps the question would have been better phrased as: is it only the UK military (or only the RAF) that routinely use QFE, or do other countries armed forces also use QFE?

But looking back, thats exactly what I did ask...

Edited to say:
Sorry mm_flynn, for some reason I didn't see your reply when I originally posted this. What types of airfields is QFE of less use for? Hot and/or high?
