Synchronizing the fuel on board with the actual measured fuel on board:

Select the FOB SYNC Softkey; or press the MENU Softkey, highlight ‘Synchronize Fuel on Board’, and press the
ENT Key. The actual measured fuel on board is displayed in the fuel on board field.

When the aircraft is in the air and a destination waypoint has been entered, the fuel calculations can be

completed.

• Estimated landing weight = zero fuel weight + estimated landing fuel weight.

• Estimated landing fuel weight = fuel on board weight - (fuel flow x ETE)

• Excess fuel weight = estimated landing fuel weight - fuel reserves weight

If the aircraft is on the ground or a destination waypoint has not been entered, the following fields display

invalid values consisting of six dashes:

• Estimated landing weight

• Estimated landing fuel weight

• Excess fuel weight
