Hi, In worked solution for Exercise 5.4 Question 2 (pg 194)
The take-off Fuel is shown as 210kg; but my calculation is (55 gal x 1.1) + 15 = 75.5 gal (205kg) minimum fuel
The 210kg is then used in the flow chart to calculate the max cargo, where as I think it should be 205kg as min fuel
In worked solution for Exercise 5.4 Question 3 (pg 194)
I agree the take-off fuel is 281kg in the beetle diagram. However the in flow chart, 292kg has been used (i believe it should be 281kg?)

Was there ever a resolution to this? I've just spent 15 minutes trying to figure out where the extra fuel has come from - its the same in the worked example preceding exercise 5.4 (Fuel @ T/O is calc'd at 206kg, but then 213kg is used in the example)
