Cruising speed
This speed is used in route calculations, when aircraft is on
the ground. Once aircraft is airborne, actual ground speed will be used.
Fuel consumption
represents average cruise fuel consumption of aircraft.
This value will be then used in the fuel computer for the endurance
and range calculation. See also the Fuel computer mode section.
Endur. reserve
is the reserve used in the endurance and range calculation.
The reserve is given in time.
Fuel computer mode
Fuel computer works in one of two modes: fixed or
automatic.
ˆ
The fixed mode always uses the fuel consumption given here in
range and endurance calculations. It ignores the values given from
fuel flow sensor/calculator.
ˆ
The automatic mode uses the fuel consumption given here only
while the aircraft is not flying – while on the ground or taxing.
As soon as aircraft is airborne, it starts calculating average con-
sumption from the fuel flow and then it uses its average for the
range and endurance. The average is true average and takes all
data after take-off into account – it is not a moving average.
