EXAMPLE:
Given:
Departure Airport Elevation ................................ 2100 ft
Takeoff weight .................................................... 40000 lb
ISA Condition
Cruise Altitude .................................................... 33000 ft
RESULTS
Data for 3600 ft (2100 ft + 1500 ft above departure airport) obtained
from interpolation from the Sea Level to 5000 ft climb table:

Distance: 79 NM
Time: 15 min
The fuel, distance and time spent during the climb phase (from 3600 ft
to 33000 ft) are:
Fuel: 967 - 93.6 = 873.4 lb
Distance: 79 - 4.3 = 74.7 NM
Time: 15 - 1.4 = 13.6 min
