Thanks for that, the 7 knot figure is one which I have heard for many years on CAA certified aircraft. But I don’t know if the rule still applies and I can’t find any reference to it in the JAR’s.
I’m 99% sure that there isn’t a requirement to account for winds when calculating VMCG for a FAA certified aircraft.
I know that we discussed this a couple of months ago, but with so many new people joining Pprune, I reckoned that it was worth asking again.
Cheers.
