Hi Robert.
let's use the falcon.
It's toc is 51,000 ft or 510.
If you devide 510 by 3 you'll get 17,000 or 170.
Then you would devide the 17,000 by two correct?
Have for climb and half for descent which would be 8,500.
Then if you would subtract the 8,500 from 51,000 which would equal 42,500 ft or a cruising alt of 425.
Which would mean if you devide 425 by three for the start of your descent.
Your descent would be at around141 miles out?
Is this not correct?
Please advise.
Thanks.

Is this correct?
Thanks.
So you would subtract that  or 340.
If you would subtract that from 51,000 51,000 or 510 which would equal
