Reply To: Artificial Horizon and Altitude

Maybe my question should be “How does altitude not matter?” The part I cannot get my mind wrapped around is that it seems like if the sun is at 20° at 100′ ASL and someone is on a 500′ tower (total 600′ ASL) in the same spot, the angle is not going to be 20° when the sight is taken from the tower at the same instant.
