Fuel Help!

Hi everyone,

I really don’t have much fuel left to make the full journey fork HANEDA TO SEATTLE. What can I do to make sure I can land and park with enough fuel. Is there a way I can get permission to land in front of people to make sure I have enough fuel?

Thanks.

You can try to stepclimb or divert if necessary.

If there is ATC you can try. If it’s too busy they’ll tell you to divert. They can do their best to get you in but in reality it is not their fault that you did not plan your flight correctly.

I used sim brief and used the fold amount of block fuel to put it…

Also what is step climb?

You climb to a higher altitude throughout the flight

Then you messed something up somewhere. I’ve been using Simbrief for years and it’s never been wrong.

Is the amount of fuel I need in the block fuel section? @Altaria55

Are you sure it was calculated using the right measurement (pounds vs kilograms)?

Yes it was KG

Your fuel usage is going to decrease once you start your decent so I’m sure you’ll be able to make it to the gate.

Ok thank you.

How’d it go

I thought there’s a “emergency fuel remaining” command for fuel emergencies…?

Good, had about 1000kg of fuel left

I had to use that
