Thanks

Had a long discussion with an experienced captain, and we came to the conclusion that on e.g rotate
at average weight & CG, the max pitch rate would be around 7-8 deg/s (desregard tailstrike). Normal rotate rate is around 3 deg/s on a 757.

for the roll its a bit more unsure since you pilots
only use max deflection only a split second at a time. His guess here is about 10 deg/s for max -
maybe higher (757).
It also depends alot on the acf it seems. The MD80 eg is alot slower.

Tricky one...

Cheers,
