So, as an example, on a flight from SIN to LHR on a 747-400 with a trip fuel of say 144.0 tonnes, and reserves plus alternate of 7.6 you would have to take 14.4 tonnes of contingency and therefore Planned Remaining of 22.0 tonnes?

percent of the total time required to
fly from the airport of departure to,
and land at, the airport to which it was
released"
