Your scheduler is feeling the pressure of the time line and wants you to fly a low level and your bud to fly a nav sortie all on the same sortie. This requires a 3.6 or 3 hours and 39 minutes of flying. According to 11-202V3 how much fuel reserve do you
10% of 219 minutes is 22 minutes.
You hit the jackpot and got assigned an AWACS out of pilot training. Your first mission has you flying a 10 hour sortie with no refueling. Your old A/C commander went through pilot training in a T-38 and has no idea how to figure your fuel reserves requ
