Flight Plan (FPL) Mode
ETE?
The ETE? field shows the Estimated Time En route to the To waypoint
of the currently displayed leg of the flight plan, using the Estimated
Ground Speed value (described previously in Using the Flight Plan
Summary Options) to figure the ETE.
In the Active flight plan, ETE? uses the latest available position as the
starting reference point. In Inactive flight plans, the beginning of the
flight plan is used as the starting point reference position. The time is
dashed (—:—) if the Estimated Ground Speed is 5 knots or less.
FUEL TO
Fuel To is the amount of fuel which will be expended to travel from the
current position to the displayed leg's To waypoint. Fuel To calculations
require a Fuel/Air Data Sensor on NAVNET, and a ground speed greater
than 20 knots in order to be valid. If not valid, the number is dashed.
The units of fuel displayed may be edited in System Mode to display in
US Gallons, Imperial Gallons, Liters, Pounds of Jet Fuel A, Pounds of
AvGas, Pounds of JP4, Kilos of JP4, Kilos of Jet Fuel A, or Kilos of
AvGas.
FUEL TO?
Fuel To? works the same as the previous Fuel To description, except
the Estimated Fuel Flow (described previously in Using Flight Plan
Summary Options) is used as an input to the calculation.
The Active flight plan also uses the actual ground speed to calculate
the Fuel To?; the Inactive flight plans use the Estimated Ground Speed
value (described previously in Using Flight Plan Summary Options).
If these inputs are not available, the number is dashed.
The units of fuel displayed may be edited in System Mode to US
Gallons, Imperial Gallons, Liters, Pounds of Jet Fuel A, Pounds of
AvGas, Pounds of JP4, Kilos of JP4, Kilos of Jet Fuel A, or Kilos of
AvGas .
