figuring Rate of Climb
I'm flying a BC12-D behind an A-65 engine.
The Service manual says 500fpm at gross There are no charts (in the manual) which describe the effect of density altitude on this performance. Other than thru experimentation, can I calculate the Rate of Climb at various density altitudes? How? - Mike
