I agree. The original discussion centred on how long it would take to glide from FL350 to sea level. Anything other than a controlled descent at or about Vmd would take less time.

I should...

From FL350, you'll travel about 85nm. At Vmd (ca 240kt IAS), you'll set off at about 410kt TAS. By FL150, your TAS will have dropped to about 300kt. For tha complete descent your average TAS will...

I think a Trent engine windmilling will keep a genny on line, providing the TAS remains reasonably high, so the partial ping will not necessarily coincide with fuel exhaustion time.

@9190 Londonman.

Let's get it right -

Earlier posts referred to the effects of 'neurotoxic particulates' on flight crew performance.

We still...

Before the FDR/CVR stop calling us?

Together with all the cavorting about (FL45, FL295, 45,000 feet, FL120, etc etc), was...
