Correct me if I'm wrong but the additional requirement when operating to an isolated airfield is for two hours holding fuel in addition to the regular final reserve fuel I think. That means that you'd need some 11 hours of fuel in the tanks for the flight that was carried out to Ascension, is that possible? I don't have a manual around to check that right now....

Thanks etimegev! Glad you like it.
