CRUISE PARAMETERS
PNF reads SAT by depressing the SAT pb & determine the ISA deviation.
Ex. FL200, in std ISA Sea lvl 15*C & Decrease by 2* each 1000ft, pressing SAT is -25*.
So FL200 std temp.= 15*C-20x2*C=-25*C (Take FCOM/ QRH Compliance Crz Weight)
FLIGHT FUEL MANAGEMENT
1. Fuel used versus distance (in Kg/Nm) = FF/GS
2. FU to DEST (in Kg) = actual FU + (dist.to go x Fuel used versus distance) = X
3. Remaining Fuel at Destination (in Kg) = FOB* - X = RF
4. Holding quantity (in Kg) = RF – (alternate fuel + final reserve) = HF
5. Estimated maxi-holding time (in min) =
