PROFILE SUGGESTIONS
Descent Profile using the 3:1 ratio rule
To determine the Top-of-Descent point for a targeted altitude,
multiply the altitude change (expressed in number of thousands)
by three. This equals the required distance to make the descent
using a three degree descent profile.
Example: Descending from 25,000 ft to 5,000 ft means 20,000 ft
of altitude to be lost; expressed in number of thousands, this
equals 20.
20 x 3 = 60, therefore 60 nm is where the descent to the new
altitude should begin.

Calculating the Descent Rate


Take the Aircrafts ground speed, add a zero to it and divide by
two. Once the aircraft is descending, the ground speed will
change, monitor the ground speed and simply recalculate every
1,000 ft.
Example: If the ground speed is 240 knots, then the descent rate
needed is: 2,400 / 2 = 1,200 fpm
Calculating Ground Speed in nautical miles per minute
Divide ground speed in knots by 60 minutes to determine the
nautical miles traveled per minute.
Example: 240 knot ground speed, 240 / 60 = 4 nm per minute
Calculating Descent Rate (other than 3 degree)
Example: ATC issues a clearance to cross an intersection at
5,000 ft; aircraft is 45 nm from intersection at 21,000 ft with a
ground speed of 270 knots.
270 knots / 60 minutes = 4.5 nm per minute
45 nm / 4.5 nm per minute = 10 minutes to intersection
21,000 ft - 5,000 ft = 16,000 ft of altitude to be lost
16,000 ft / 10 min = 1,600 fpm descent rate
Calculating ISA at altitude
Multiply the first two numbers of the Flight Level by -2 Celsius,
add to that the Standard Temp of 15Celsius.
Example: FL 280 28 x -2 = -56 + 15 = -41C
