when active.

FUEL CALCULATIONS GROUP
NOTE:
Fuel calculations do not use the aircraft fuel quantity indicators and are calculated from the last time
the fuel was reset.
Fuel used (GAL USED), endurance (ENDUR, HH:MM), and range (RANGE NM) are all calculated based on
the displayed fuel remaining (GAL REM) and the fuel flow totalizer. The displayed fuel remaining, for purposes
of these calculations, can be adjusted using the following softkeys:
•
DEC FUEL
– Decreases totalizer-based fuel remaining in one-gallon increments
•
INC FUEL
– Increases totalizer-based fuel remaining in one-gallon increments
•
RST FUEL
– Resets totalizer-based fuel remaining to the aircraft’s fuel capacity and sets the GAL USED
display to zero
