Dep Beck,
At Manch, we have QNH1009. QFE1000. For Rw24R we add 0.2mb, for 06L add 1.6mb and 06R 2.6 mb [ I think], and round DOWN. So If the QFE is 1000.3, and we are landing 06R, then touchdown is 1000.3 plus 2.6 = 1002.9 which we round down to 1002.
QNH is passed by Met in WHOLE numbers, QFE in increments
hope this helps
we aim to please, it keeps the cleaners happy
