Does anyone have a reference about the maximum altitude from which you would not execute an emergency descent, just a rapid descent without reaching for the oxygen mask. I seem to recall somewhere in the region 16,000ft to 20,000ft, you would arrive at 10,000 in a couple of mins. Am I making this up or have I read that somewhere?! Thanks
