50 fpm for multiengine with an engine inop.

Service ceiling is the altitude at which you can no longer | climb faster than something like 100 fpm. If you're above the service | ceiling when you lose the engine you will probably be able to maintain | something somewhat higher, like maybe 6005 feet... ![]() | | BDS | | |
