Nib On Airplane Mode

[Hans-Gabriel]

Hi!

 

Has anyone used a Schmidt FH452? They claim it can be used in altitude without leaking. I guess it is preassure compensated.

Does it really work?

Any leaks?

Is it worth paying the little extra?

 

Thanks for your input!

Almost all modern pens can be used on an airplane with no worries.

a little extra cost when compared to?

 

I have used this nib unit extensively, It performs really well. It is also reasonably priced in the same ballpark of nib units that do not specify the altitute rating...

Thank you folks for your input.

I will give it a try.

Well, mostly....

 

It helps to fly with the pen as full as possible. And stored with the nib pointed up.

In these circumstances, almost all pens work fine.

 

With less optimal conditions, some will burp a little in into the cap.
