INFLIGHT DIVERSION
These charts are provided for the pilots to determine if the fuel
remaining is enough to complete the trip at Long Range Cruise (LRC)
mode from one point in cruise to an alternate airport. The charts also
enable rapid determination of fuel and time required to proceed to an
alternate airport.
Fuel and time are determined in the same way as the simplified flight
planning charts, with distance to destination instead of trip distance,
disregarding the climb phase.
The pilots can also use the charts in the opposite direction, i.e.,
entering with the fuel remaining on board and finding the range at a
given flight level at LRC.
