Press LSK 1R to go to page 2.
(you can also press NEXT PAGE but the right LSKs act as
shortcuts if you have more than one alternate entered in)
Press LSK 5L to switch to calculating the alternate via the
MISSED APP.
Notice now that all the fields change to reflect values that take the
whole flight to Innsbruck followed by a missed approach and
diversion to Munich into account.
We’re going to increase the altitude to FL140 (14000) feet since we can’t
actually fly at the optimal altitude of 13622 feet. We’d normally want to go
to the highest altitude without going over the best cost trip altitude, which
for this diversion would be FL120, but in this case we’re going to go up to
FL140 so that we’re absolutely ensured terrain clearance. The highest
mountain in the Austrian Alps is about 12500 feet high.
Enter 14000 into the TRIP ALT field at LSK 1R.
