I hope these questions have not been asked before, I have looked briefly at the Forum and cannot find them.
ok here goes..
1. What is the effect of altitude upon aircrafts speeds and rate of climb/descent.
2. What is the effect of climb and descent upon aircrafts ground speed.
3. Can anyone recommend a website, where I can study a/c performance, esp ROC/ROD also rate of turns. I have searched lots but cannot find anything really. Is there a general rule of thumb between sizes, engines etc..
Thanks in advanced

As your specific questions possibly indicate a wider interest, may I suggest you look at the Tech Log URL sticky. .. there are numerous links to performance related discussions.
