Fuel planning - Calculating endurance / fuel margin / fuel required

[Guest Brett Campany]

Hey guys, I'm really having some issues with calculating fuel endurance for individual legs. I just can't get my figure right and I have a feeling I might have been shown something that is incorrect. Can anyone put down a formula in black and white so I can check my figures?

 

Cheers

Disregard!!

 

I've finally realized where I was going wrong and yes, it was me not paying attention!

 

For those who come across this thread for the same problem:

 

Fuel Required = Sub Total of Cruiser / Climb / Alternate + Fixed Reserve / Holding / Taxi

 

Fuel Margin = Endurance - Fuel Required

 

Endurance = Fuel Margin (previous leg) + Reserve

 

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's it. And that's for working out in minutes. Then calculate for volume after that.

 

Please someone correct me if I'm wrong though!
