G-YMMM approx. fuel remaining . . . .

Quoting CONF iture:

Very good Steve !
As frost shape is quite similar to what we saw under MMM, I think it does validate the "indicated" 10500 kg from AAIB report.
Thanks
And Swedish Steve:

Took this this afternoon. A B777-200ER of Malaysia airlines just parked on the ramp at ARN after an 11 hour flight. This frost cover on the lower wing is typical. Total fuel on board 9700kgs.
Very similar to the frost area under MMM, see picture and drawings below:










With special thanks to a fellow PPRuNe-er for helping me get wiser on how to post images here.

Checked another B777-200ER here at AMS during a post flight insp. which had approx. the same area of frost under the wing.
