Hi guys,

Thanks again for the feedback. And special thanks for the references.
Seems like min 500fpm seem reasonable.
I was told 1000fpm 10 years ago and wanted to find out finally ;-)

What about the deceleration rate?
Lets say we are heavy and the anti ice pushes you during the descend.
At times it might be a bit tough to get rid of the speed without spoilers. (yeah, I know they are there to be used.... )
