Rate of Climb-Rate of Descent
Hi guys,

I've had some discussion recently with some friends regarding ROC and ROD.

I'm pretty sure that during descent you should maintain
AT LEAST 1000 fpm,and in the climb AT LEAST 500 fpm,otherwise advise ATC.

Is that true or just wide spread common sense?

Does anybody know on which official document can I find it (i.e. DOC 4444 or ATPL books like AIR LAW,PERF or else) ?

thanks
