What is Minimum Roll Rate with Aileron Deflection about?

The minimum roll rate of a commercial airliner with maximum aileron deflection would depend on the aircraft and altitude. At sea level, large airliners have very low roll rates of around 2 degrees per second due to high roll damping from their wide wingspans. However, roll rates increase with altitude as air density decreases. With maximum aileron deflection, most airliners could achieve roll rates of 10-15 degrees per second or more at higher altitudes. Regulations require commercial aircraft to be able to
