Okay everyone, I have searched for a long time now and not finding much of what people do with their RVs in this category.
I'm getting ready for my instrument check ride soon and while I know my RV pretty well at this point and its climb rate at various density altitudes, I doubt the examiner is going to accept my word and why would he if the topic comes up?
I have slowly developed a climb performance spreadsheet over time (and during phase 1) but it has a lot of incomplete areas because wildly different than standard days or low pressure altitudes don't present themselves where I live.
I suppose a possible good method would be to use a Koch chart but with the RV I find it to be extremely conservative. Like absurdly conservative.
Anyone have some advice/experience here? Thanks!
