The above table can be used for Bingo/Joker calculations.
When reaching the fuel state input in the UFC the pilot will receive visual (HUD) and audio (VMS)
warnings.
Bingo fuel warning is based either on fuselage fuel with the FUEL QTY SEL knob in NORM or on total
fuel with the FUEL QTY SEL knob out of NORM.
With the FUEL QTY SEL knob in NORM the bingo computation is based on the lesser of fuselage fuel
weight or total fuel weight.
In other words with the FUEL QTY SEL knob in NORM a Bingo fuel warning will be triggered as soon
as either fuselage fuel or total fuel decreases below the entered BINGO fuel value. With the FUEL
QTY SEL knob out of NORM the warning will only be triggered when total fuel decreases below the
entered BINGO value.
With trapped external fuel this could lead to fuel starvation before the Bingo warning is triggered.
It is thus very important that the FUEL QTY SEL knob is left in NORM whenever you are not doing
fuel/ops checks.
