CAUTION
The KLN 90B fuel calculations are based
on the present rate of fuel flow, the present
groundspeed, the present distance to the
destination airport along the programmed
route, and the amount of fuel onboard
entered at departure. Before takeoff, the
unit must be properly initialized with the
amount of fuel on board. Since many
factors influence the required amount of
fuel to reach the destination, check the fuel
pages often for significant changes. Some
factors affecting the amount of fuel
required
are
power
changes,
altitude
changes,
headwind/tailwind
component
changes, and routing changes.

1. The destination waypoint. An
arrow is displayed to the left of the
identifier if the waypoint is the
active waypoint.
2. The fuel units as received from the
AETM.
3. The fuel presently on board (FOB).
To change the present fuel on
board:
a. Turn to the OTH 5 page.
b. Press the left CRSR button to
turn on the cursor function.
c.
Enter the current fuel on
board using the left inner and
outer knobs.
d. Turn the cursor function off.
4. The fuel required to reach the
destination waypoint at the current
rate of fuel flow and the present
groundspeed (REQD).
5. The landing fuel on board (L FOB)
is the original fuel on board minus
the total fuel required to reach the
destination.
6. The desired fuel reserve (RES) is
the amount of reserve fuel the pilot
has entered. The fuel must be
entered
in
the
same
units
displayed on the first line. To enter
the reserve, press the left CRSR
button, rotate the left outer knob to
move the cursor over the RES
field. Use the left inner and outer
knobs to enter the desired fuel
quantity. Press the left CRSR
button to turn off the left cursor
function.
7. The calculated extra fuel (EXTRA)
is the landing fuel on board (L
FOB)
minus
the
fuel
reserve
(RES).
(b) OTH 6 Page. The OTH 6 page
displays the following information. Refer to Figure
3-76.
1. The endurance (ENDUR) in hours
and minutes. The endurance is
calculated based on the amount of
fuel remaining after subtracting out
the reserve (RES) entered on the
OTH 5 page or the OTH 6 page
from the present fuel on board.
