(For this question use annex 033-018 rev. 05.11.2004 or Flight Planning Manual MRJT 1 Figure 4.3.6).
In order to find ALTERNATE FUEL and TIME TO ALTERNATE, the AEROPLANE OPERATING MANUAL shall be entered with:
In order to find ALTERNATE FUEL and TIME TO ALTERNATE, the AEROPLANE OPERATING MANUAL shall be entered with:
-
A
distance in nautical miles (NM), wind component, landing mass at alternate
-
B
distance in nautical air miles (NAM), wind component, landing mass at alternate
-
C
distance in nautical miles (NM), wind component, Dry Operating Mass plus Holding Fuel
-
D
distance in nautical miles (NM), wind component, Zero Fuel Mass
Refer to figure.
Working through the graph: We enter the graph with a known GROUND distance (NM) to the Alternate (not Air miles NAM). Thereafter, we apply the wind correction - that is what we need the Wind Component for. Then we apply the mass correction using the "Landing Weight at Alternate".
