Just wondering if anyone can help with this. I'd like to calculate the total fuel required on board at start up for a 1 engine inop ETP/CP scenario going from, say YAAA to YBBB. YBBB is "Suitable" and no WX holding fuel is required. YAAA (the departing airport) is "Acceptable" and requires 30 minutes holding to make it "Suitable".

Question is, when working out the total fuel on board that covers the 1 engine INop ETP/CP requirement, do I need to carry the 30 minutes fuel for YAAA? Or do I assume the flight will go on to YBBB and therefore I don't require the 30 minutes holding?
