Re: Wake Turbulence - Interpretation

topdrop - we're also considering when the C402 can climb to less that 1,000ft below where the heavy was, and this is where the 6nm comes in. Not 6nm from the point of passing, as we've discussed to death now, but 6nm behind the heavy's present position. The heavy, as you rightly say, can descend as soon they have tail-to-tail.
