If you are going up or down in RVSM then the advice is a MAXIMUM of 1000fpm to avoid pinging the TCAS
this is ONLY valid in the last 1,000 ft to avoid TCAS RA,be it in a climb or descent,but that's not what I meant when I opened the thread.
I've had lots of colleagues complaining about ACFT descending with 800 fpm whilst they were expecting at least 1,000 fpm.....
that's why I'd like to find out THE BOOK where I can see this thing written down.
has anybody seen anything written in a JAA ATPL book ?
ICAO paper (as DOC 4444)?
I'm looking for europe mainly,not planning to go to work in Oz yet
thanks
