Reduced Contingency Fuel Planning

Good Day,

Can any of the boffins perhaps advice me to why it is 6 hrs or where it comes from?

I am referring to to EU OPS Appendix 1 to OPS1.255 Fuel Policy paragraph 2.1.d "alternate fuel or no alternate fuel if decision point is at less than 6 hours from the Destination 1 aerodrome . . ."

Thanks,

Bob
