It is unusual to see minimum contingency fuel planned
- CAA guidleines are that such 'anticipated' dely fuel should be in the trip fuel, not contingency.

I'd be impressed if you got 35 minutes holding out of ".3-.5T"

leder - the expression the CAA came up with was 'expect 20 minutes delay for a 'no-delay' approach' (Aged CAA PINK)
