How does one figure how rough the air is?
Consider that my final glide is happening at the end of the day, just one or two bubbles of lift remaining, and I am at Vne.
Am I safe at this speed or should I only be going this fast if I am SURE that not one bubble remains, and no turbulant air will be flown into?
Surely there is a recommendation on what constitutes "rough air" -or should I just limit my control input at this speed?
