Fuel Calculation deviation

Hey,
I have an issue with the Fuel calculation. The OFP from FRA to MAN ( A319, Fenix) with a Block Fuel of 7.0 t. My first pred. Fuel calculation in the OFP is 4.9t after 09 Min after Take off. At the End of the SID I have a deviation of aprox. 1.5 t more Fuel on Bord then calc from Simbrief in the OFP.

Do you have any Ideas?

You are using the DLH layout, which shows the minimum fuel on board in its navlog, as opposed to the estimated fuel on board, the difference here being 606 (contingency) + 367 (extra) i.e. 973 kilos of fuel.

Not sure where the extra half-ton of difference would come from, but presumably you had a very economical climb somehow. Perhaps the actual weather is more favorable than the predicted weather?

ah thank you so much! That’s good to know that the values are minimum. Is there a Layout which shows me the calculated fuel over the Waypoints ?

The default LIDO does, as do many others; I am not sure which ones behave like DLH but if I am not mistaken they are the exception rather than the rule.

Thanks Tim! I may try another Profile, I am not that happy with the DLH Layout. There are many other more comfortable ones.

Best Regards
