No there are no regulations for climb or descent rates for VFR

Err I don't think that's 100% correct but it will do for MX.
Please then for my benefit point me to such a regulation.
Technically speaking, it is illegal to descend faster than about
25,000fpm (needs to be adjusted based on density, since it's give in
terms of indicated airspeed) when below 10,000ft. I doubt too many
flights would need to worry about this limitation.


Or climb!


But in fact this can be waived and very frequently is.

It is an absolute violation to ascend or descend faster 186,000mps.

But
feel free to try and let me know the outcome.


That may change this year....

Hey, look. If you got no wikipedia link on that one I'm sorry but I
just gotta call BS on it.

Well, it's the particle accelerator at CERN in Geneva, They're doing an
experiment this year which could open a wormhole, or make a localised black
hole. they'r enot really sure, which is a bit worring. I didn't see it on
the net, but I'm sure you can find plenty!

Einstein needs to be moved out of the way!

Wow. This one I will be looking up for sure. Thanks!

Just in case Bertie's wording has made anyone jumpy, the universe itself
does this sort of thing all the time (high-energy cosmic rays smashing
into things) and it's still around.

Exactly.

Stil, they haven't done it in this close a proximity to so many anal
retentive people before. (Swizerland always looks like my mother has been
there, cleaning up after everyone)

And this is an article on the worm hole thing.

I love this stuff. I wish I were enough of a mathematician to really
follow the numbers.

It's pretty mindblowing. you know about Ronald Mallet? Look him up if you
haven't already heard of him.
