minimum rates of descent (given that the cabin altitude could climb on descent!!),
What would "minimum rate" of [airplane] descent have to do in raising the cabin altitude from 6000' at FL350 to 9,500' at UIO, or to 13,300' at LPB?
How long do you think it would take to "climb" the cabin from 6,000' to 13,500' at 500fpm? How about ...15min?
How long do you think it would take to raise the cabin from 6,000' to 13,500' at 750fpm? How about ...10min?
How long do you think it would take to descent from FL350 and to manoeuvre to land at 13,300'?
Hint: It would take you MORE than 15 minutes even if you were a test pilot.
