Resvrule=<param>

param can be a number in minutes.

From some posts, there is a suggestion that a textual reserve fuel export string is also supported. The API docs only mentions minutes, I could just poke around and try domestic, flag, B043, etc., but …

Can someone post a list of what is known to work?

Hi Orest,

Here are the possible values for resvrule:

Value Description
auto 30 minutes for jets, 45 minutes for props
0 No reserve fuel
30, 45, etc. Custom reserve fuel, in minutes
faa FAA auto (domestic or flag depending on the airports)
45/0 FAA domestic (45 minutes)
30/0.10 FAA flag (30 minutes plus 10%)
b043 FAA OpSpec B043 (45 minutes + 10% of the time in Class II airspace)
b343 FAA OpSpec B343 (as described here)

When it comes to the b343 option, you can/should specify a custom PBCF fuel amount using the following additional parameters:

&resvrule=b343&addedfuel=10&addedfuel_units=min&addedfuel_label=ACF90

addedfuel is the amount of PBCF fuel in minutes, addedfuel_label can be either ACF90 or ACF99.

Best regards,

Perfect, thanks much!

OK, so now how do you set FOD? I need 75 mins for B343.

You can do that with the following:

&minfod=75&minfod_units=min

Best regards,

Perfect, thanks again.
