Calculation of Alternate Fuel
Hi. I have a doubt regarding the calculation of alternate fuel. Alternate fuel is the sum of the following fuels:-
a) Missed Approach
b) Climb
c) Cruise
d) TOD to Pt where the Approach is commenced
e) Approach and Landing
Q1 - The missed approach is not clearly defined in many regulatory manuals. EASA defines it as the fuel for the entire missed approach procedure. In case it is not defined, what would be a standard calculation?
Q2 - The Approach and Landing Fuel - again does this mean the fuel required for the expected Instrument Approach Procedure or would it just be a discretionary value?
Would appreciate some answers to the above questions.
