Given the following information about a Commercial Air Transport flight, what is the required Taxi Fuel?

Planned taxi time: 10 min 
Planned APU usage: ON for 10 min 
Company policy: For flight planning purposes, Taxi Fuel shall be calculated as at least 60 kg.

  • A
    55 kg
  • B
    70 kg
  • C
    60 kg
  • D
    75 kg
Refer to figure.
According to the annex, Taxi Fuel = Start up Fuel + Taxiing Fuel + APU Fuel
  • In the attached document we can see that the taxi fuel is 5 kg/min and that the APU consumes 120 kg/h:
Start up: 5 kg
Taxiing: 10 minutes × 5 kg/min = 50 kg
APU: 10 min x 120 kg/h = 20 kg
5 kg + 50 kg + 20 kg = 75 kg
