how do you calculate fpm?
Hey people,
I just had a quick question for people the use the ascent rate or descent rate factor? How do you determine if you give a 2000fpm or 1500 or such and such. And well when you utilize this separation method are you aware of the aircraft caracteristics? Not all planes descend nor climb at the same rate. And also the air density factor will also come in to play. During the summer, the same aircraft will not necessarily climb the same as in winter?
If somebody can explain to me how this is trained and when you actually have faith in using this add.
Thanx alot.
