Not 100% sure, but air density values pulled out of books tend to be at STP. Standard temperature and pressure are not common values one would see at sea level. For example, I believe standard temperature is 0C...

I don't know how big a difference the true air density would make on Cd accuracy, but if the value was pulled out of a book it is probably off.
