What is PNR factor?

• Fuel average fuel consumption enroute to a PNR.

• The amount of fuel required to fly back to you alternate with reserves in tact.

• The amount of fuel required to fly back to you alternate with no reserves remaning

• The fuel taken to fly 1nm out from an ETP at altitude then return at 10,000ft to the ETP

Cost index is a measure of how expensive fuel vs time is. If an aircraft flew at CI 999 would that be faster or slower then normal?

• Slower

• CI 999 is normal cruise speed

• faster

• Cost index only goes up to 200

• 60 min

• 60 min + instrument approach

• 30 min + instrument approach

• 30 min fixed reserve + 12 min instrument appraoch + PDA + 2% contingency
