30degrees of bank is a pretty common limitation in 121 SOP.
I understand perfectly that the rules are whatever is more restrictive. My question primarily was focused on whether or not there are bank angle restrictions in the FARs anywhere - I couldn't find them outside of very specific situations (performance after takeoff and holding).
Do they exist somewhere?
Thanks!
