latetonite - 2 of us, then FOD is MEANINGLESS as posted by Gunger Din.

EG What is 'over-head destination'? Cruise level, 1500' as per FMC basic calculations, 10 mile final, where???

EG IF you mean an ABSOLUTE minimum REGARDLESS of CMR, REGARDLESS of weather, REGARDLESS of approach procedure, then say so. Even more meaningless!

This all harks back to the thread about not operating into 'LOW' fuel (<1812kg) on the NG. That one died a death.....
