Thanks guys this is great!

Can the formula MLW - EStimated landing weight work?

The reason we were tankering fuel, was because at our home base there was a possible fuel shortage due to a fuel leak in the pipes at the place where the tankers pick up the fuel..Emirates and BA had priority over the fuel!

At my company on our OFP we have a fuel penalty of per 100kg = 5

If I remember correctly on the day using RW 31 our RTOM was 73.1

Estimated TOM 70t
Required minimum block fuel of 10t

So am I correct in thinking I could uplift 3.1 extra fuel?
