Help
Is there a formula to work out a rate of turn eg degrees per sec
for a given airspeed and angle of bank.
60knots and 20 degrees angle of bank.

Yes, the one that BEagle gave you in your identical thread in the Flight Instructors Forum.

No probs Big Beres
Use 10% IAS +7 eg: 100kts = 17 AOB eg: 80kts = 15 AOB
this is a std rate one turn 360 degree in 2 min.
No not from a text book at least i dont think it is, its what we use and its spot on. cheers
Ps: just been and looked at the "identical thread" seems there is an actuall cal: but the above is simple rule of thumb and is very accurate. (but i guess you could use your scientific calculator while flying IFR couldnt you?
lol)
