10 / 20

Given the following information for a planned flight from MIKE to GAMMA, how much has the fuel flow increased?

Planned fuel consumption: 1125 kg/hr
Planned fuel remaining at GAMMA: 1010 kg
Actual fuel remaining at GAMMA: 960 kg
Flight time from MIKE to fly to GAMMA: 5 minutes

  • A

    600 kg/hr

  • B

    900 kg/hr

  • C

    1725 kg/hr

  • D

    500 kg/hr

1. During the flight from MIKE to GAMMA the fuel consumption increases by:

  • Planned fuel remaining at GAMMA - Actual fuel remaining at GAMMA
  • 1010 kg - 960 kg = 50 kg

2. This 50 kg increase in the fuel consumption was for a 5-minute flight.

3. Thus, the increase in the fuel consumption in kg/hr is:

  • 50 kg x 60/5 = 600 kg/hr
