Refer to figure.
Given the following information and assuming that the flight and weather conditions from RUPEP FIR BDRY to LUPOV are the same as from SNT to RUPEP FIR BDRY, calculate the revised expected remaining fuel overhead LUPOV.
Actual remaining fuel at SNT: 11 800 kg
Actual remaining fuel at RUPEP FIR BDRY: 10 770 kg
Refer to figure.
Important Note: Recent feedback has confirmed that the correct answer for this question is 8155 kg using the same values. We would highly appreciate it if anyone could provide further details so that we can update either the answer or the question accordingly. Thanks!
1. Actual fuel consumption from SNT to RUPEP FIR BDRY:
- Actual remaining fuel at SNT: 11 800 kg
- Actual remaining fuel at RUPEP FIR BDRY: 10 770 kg
- Actual fuel consumption: 11 800 kg - 10 770 kg = 1030 kg
2. Actual fuel flow from SNT to RUPEP FIR BDRY:
- Actual fuel consumption: 1030 kg
- Distance from SNT to RUPEP FIR BDRY: 40 + 35 + 21 + 56 = 152 NM
- Actual fuel flow: 1030 kg/152 NM = 6.77 kg/NM
3. Actual fuel consumption from RUPEP FIR BDRY to LUPOV:
- Distance from RUPEP FIR BDRY to LUPOV: 42 + 349 = 391 NM
- Actual fuel consumption: 6.77 kg/NM x 391 NM = 2647 kg
4. Revised expected remaining fuel overhead LUPOV:
- Actual remaining fuel at RUPEP FIR BDRY: 10 770 kg
- Actual fuel consumption from RUPEP FIR BDRY to LUPOV: 2647 kg
- AREM overhead LUPOV: 10 770 kg - 2647 kg = 8123 kg
Therefore, the closest answer is: 8155 kg
