##### AMC4 UAM.OP.VCA.191 Fuel/energy scheme — fuel/energy planning and in-flight replanning *ED Decision 2025/010/R* **FINAL FUEL/ENERGY RESERVE** (a) For the purpose of final fuel/energy determination, the operator should use data and information provided in the AFM by the VCA manufacturer with regard to the representative time for a go-around and an approach. The representative time is established on the basis of an appropriate VCA configuration and speed, in conservative ambient conditions and conservative fuel/energy consumption, taking into account the certified minimum performance (CMP) of the VCA. The go-around and approach procedure should be executable in the current operating conditions. (b) The amount of final fuel/energy reserve carried on a flight as determined on the basis of point (a) should be sufficient for at least 5 minutes flying time at a VCA configuration and speed appropriate for a go-around and approach procedure.
