Oceanic reclearance?
For those of you operating ETOPS across the NAT HLA, I have a question...
-If you receive a clearance that differs to the one that forms part of the route on the OFP, do you have to manually recalculate the critical fuel scenarios and ETPs?
-Does the dispatcher take into consideration the possibility of a reclearance to an adjacent NAT track when calculating fuel requirements, or would the usual 5% CONT be enough to cover this? Obviously the EEP and EXP can easily be determined from the range rings drawn on the plotting chart.
