Pilot's height gauge (9)

I believe the answer is:

altimeter

(Other definitions for altimeter that I've seen before include "Instrument to measure height above ground" , "Height sensor" , "Aircraft instrument" , "Aircraft height indicator" , "Plane's height measurer" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
