How long to get down question
If I need to get on the ground that fast.. screw the "pattern" and taxi
time.. The descent will be planned to have me on final and "configured" for landing.. I'll stop on the runway or turn off and shut down.. the trucks can meet me there... screw "taxi"... BTDT BT "Doug" wrote in message ups.com... If you are directly over the airport you can land at, then follow the emergency decent procedures for that plane (and they differ from plane to plane) and come down about 2000 fpm (I really don't know, and it would depend on the plane), but lets use that figure. Then it would take 21 1/2 minutes to get down and maybe 1 1/2 minutes in the pattern and 1 minute of taxi, so that is 23 minutes, assuming the airport is at sealevel. That would be fast.
