King Red - the good book is P J Swatton 'Aircraft Performance Theory for Pilots". Its about 25 quid from Amazon UK.

I got mine as a Christmas present to myself. Very good read. Makes one appreciate the performance chaps.

The 70% LDA is turboprop only, and (p 268) provides for the difference between 'maximum braking' and 'normal braking plus normal operational variabilities'.
