Request - minimum diversion fuel on the OFP!


Recommended Posts

Hi,

is there any chance to have the minimum diversion fuel on the OFP without calculating it by adding the burn + 30 min final reserve..

You need this number during your normal preflight-flow in the cockpit and already during the preflight phase in the office when you do your fuel decision! You get so many information's notams weather, loading, routing, MEL-stuff etc etc... The min div fuel and your remaining fuel is the last thing where you look at, before your decide how much extra you want..

FUEL CORR ENDUR
TRIP 8816 ........ 01:09
CONT 3% LPMR 595 ........ 00:05
ALTN LPBJ 2647 ........ 00:20
FINAL RESV 3567 ........ 00:30
MIN T/O 15625 ........ 02:04 .....................................
EXTRA 115 ........ 00:01 CAPTAINS SIGNATURE (....)
TAXI 260 ........ 00:10
RELEASE 16000 ........ 02:15

Emirates has FMC-RSV -6.3- between Extra and Taxi.. this would already help a lot!

Even better would be the option, to have this number for all alternates:

ALTERNATE PLANNING
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ALTN/RWY DIST ALT/FL COMP TIME FUEL DIFF ROUTE
LPBJ/01L 79 FL130 HD008 00:20 2647 - DCT
LPFR/10 131 FL190 HD007 00:28 3586 +939 TROI2N TROIA A5 ODEMI Y101 USALU USAL4C
LPPR/35 174 FL300 HD003 00:33 4430 +1783 FTM9N FTM DCT ABLEG ABLE2C
LEZL/09 189 FL190 HD011 00:37 4625 +1978 GAIO2N GAIOS A44 SANTA SANT3F

This is the format of X3 and all the other TUI airlines.

ALTERNATE ... ... ... ... BURN/ +30
LGSA SOUDA 880 / 1960
LGRP RHODOS 1470 / 2550
LGAV ATHINAI ELEFTH 1710 / 2790
LGKO KOS 2000 / 3080
LGSR SANTORINI 1000 / 2080

It helps a lot because if you are in a holding at the destination airport the stress level is already high...
Thanks!

Thanks for your reply christian!

Just found it! This is for the first alternate.. correct? Or is there a way to have the MinReserveFuel published for alternate 1-4 in order to have it like this--> ?

One more little thing, if I try to get it look like the emirates format FMC-RSV 5.1, by using the formatting parameter [2] after the MinReservFuel variable it´s rounding down, not up. So 5018 gets 5.0

Thanks again for your response!
