Block fuel is sufficient to fly to your destination safely but what happens if we expect disruption during the sector? Maybe we need to de ice on a remote stand, perhaps there are TS’s forecast en-route or our destination? Heavy snow is forecast, how long can we hold if the runway is closed?

All these variables require sensible fuel planning and potentially additional fuel to be carried. In this brief tutorial I’ll discuss PIC discretionary fuel, why we’d take it and how much and hopefully you can apply it to your next virtual flight 😊
