OK I have approach charts, but what I'm looking for is a site which I think I've seen on here but not to sure.
This site contains VS speeds and decent rates that apply to all aircraft from the Cessna to concorde. The problem is I can't remember where I found it.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Hi Liono. I don't know if you mean this one -but it works for me!
THANK YOU
You have saved my insanity. This address was DRIVING ME CRAZY
p.s
Welcome to the family m8. Have a drink on me 🍻
Thank you for the link Soarer, and thanks for the reminder that such a link existed Liono. One thing doesn't make sense however. I checked out the graph for the B752, and found that it says from FL 240 to 10,000, descend at 3500 fpm at 270 kts. That would be like 4 degrees nose down attitude 😳 Any explanations?
Crosscheck you don't know how bad this site was giving me a headache, I went 100 pages on my VA and couldn't find it at all.

I would assume this all depends on how far out you start making your decent to the airport wouldn't it
Someone please correct if I'm wrong (usally am anyway😞 )
Well, true, you must account for distance vs. altitude, but there's also weight, strain on the aircraft, amount of fuel left; but then again, I remember once hearing that if an aircraft exceeded 4 degrees pitch down when it's unneceesary, eg. your not in an emergency situation, the crew could report the pilots error, and he/she could get fired.
