Dear fellow pilots,
In our OM(A) it is specified that minimum acceleration altitude is 800 feet AGL,
and in LPC we get sometimes a lower value for example 527 feet,one of the instructors I met suggested to add the airport elevation to the minimum acceleration altitude,I would like to know what other airlines say about it,do you change it depending on the airport ,what factors affecting it and what is the best rule of thumb if any?
