Tamba765 2 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I was planning a flight from RJAA to KIAH in the B777LR. I did this same flight in the B777 many times in the real world. After selecting the ETOPS alternates, the ETOPS symbol turned green, which I assume means that the ETOPS requirements were met for the 207 minute scenario. All the 207 minute circles overlapped. When selecting "Compute Flight", I got 6 warnings saying PMDY and PHNL were ignored due to "Critical Fuel Airport" reasons. There was more than enough fuel to complete the flight and the weather was adequate at both airports. I've never been a dispatcher, I just "drove the bus". What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

srcooke 422 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 PFPX uses the pairing to compute the ETP's Pete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
