Description

In this podcast we talk about the 70/50 rule for determining takeoff performance. The rule says, "if I don't have 70% of the required speed by the halfway point of the runway, I should abort the takeoff". Is this a myth? Does it hold true? If you do have the speed, does it mean you should go? Let's discuss on this episode of The Finer Points, Fly Your Best!
