BASIC FUEL SCHEME WITH VARIATIONS — STATISTICAL CONTINGENCY FUEL METHOD
As an example of statistical contingency fuel, the following statistical values of the deviation from the planned to the actual trip fuel provide appropriate statistical coverage:
(a) 99 % coverage plus 3 % of the trip fuel if the calculated flight time:
(1) is less than 2 hours; or
(2) is more than 2 hours and no fuel ERA aerodrome is available;
(b) 99 % coverage if the calculated flight time is more than 2 hours and a fuel ERA aerodrome is available; and
(c) 90 % coverage if:
(1) the calculated flight time is more than 2 hours;
(2) a fuel ERA aerodrome is available; and
(3) at the destination aerodrome, two separate runways are available and usable, one of which is suitable for type B instrument approach operations, and the meteorological conditions are in accordance with point CAT.OP.MPA.182(e).
