If you get a crossing restriction when you are 90 miles from the fix, are saying that you start a descent as soon as you get the restriction..??
BushwickBill used 90 miles as an example of when he got the crossing restriction. How does 90 miles fit into your example..??
90nm is 3x the altitude to be lost, or 30,000. Another way of stating the 3 to 1 rule.
To cross Baill @11000 you would leave 410 approximately 90nm from Baill.
