or attached, a P is indicated on the right side of line 3
and this also allows direct access to that pattern's
definition page for review or modification.
(6) Entry and Display of Alternate Flight Plan
Leg Time, Fuel, and Weight. Scrolling laterally from
the Leg A page to the Leg B page, the pilot may enter
parameters to compute the time, fuel, and gross
weights for each leg.
The waypoint departure and arrival times for
each leg shows elapsed time from takeoff (i.e.,
assume a default takeoff time of 00:00). If a required
departure or waypoint arrival time is entered, the times
are fixed times with respect to the entered value. The
alternate flight plan ETA's are calculated to each
waypoint using the waypoint wind and TAS entries
provided for each waypoint on the Leg A pages.
Only one required time may be entered in the
alternate flight plan, either the first departure time or
any waypoint arrival time. The * indicates an entered
required time versus a computed departure or arrival
time. If a loiter/hold/pattern on-station elapsed time is
entered on the Leg C page, the arrival and departure
times for a waypoint will differ by that planned loiter
time. If a fuel onload or cargo offload is entered at a
waypoint, the arrival and departure fuel and/or gross
weight will differ by the entered amount.
Figure 3C-69 and Table 3C-52.
(7) Entry and Display of Planned Altitude.
On the Leg C page, optional entries of the planned
cruise altitude/flight level and bank command limit for
each leg may be made. Each altitude/flight level entry
is transferred to the active flight plan when the
alternate flight plan is transferred.
(8) Entry and Display of On-Station Loiter
Time and Fuel Parameters. If the mission includes an
aerial refueling pattern, holding pattern, MFP, or other
loiter on-station at a waypoint, enter the planned loiter
time and fuel burn rate on the Leg C page. This will
cause the total mission time and fuel calculations to
accommodate the planned loiter. If an intermediate
landing without refueling is planned, enter the ground
time with no fuel burn or use another alternate flight
plan for the next segment.

ONLOAD/OFFLOAD.
delivery is planned during the flight plan leg, perform
the following procedure.
If an ONLOAD is entered, the FMS-800 assumes
that the loaded quantity is usable fuel and increments
both the departure gross weight and fuel remaining at
that waypoint. In this case, the REQD and TOTAL
(mission) fuel on the Fuel Summary page will be
greater than the initial ramp fuel loaded on the Init Fuel
page.
If an offload is entered, the FMS-800 assumes
that it is either an airdrop payload or a tanker aerial
refueling offload (i.e., it will reduce the gross weight
but not the usable fuel remaining at that waypoint).
