FUEL STATISTICS
The fuel statistics are calculated based on the selected starting and ending waypoints and the\
 trip planning 
inputs.  Some of the calculated trip statistics are dashed when the selected leg of the active flight plan has 
already been flown.
•	Fuel	efficiency	 (EFFICIENCY)	 -	 	This	 value	 is	calculated	 by	dividing	 the	current	 ground	speed	by	the	
current fuel flow.  
•	 Time	 of	fuel endurance (TOTAL ENDUR) -  This time is shown as hours:minutes.  This value is obtain\
ed 
by dividing the amount of fuel on board by the current fuel flow.  
•	 Fuel	on	board	 upon	reaching	 end	of	selected	 leg	(REM FUEL) -  This value is calculated by taking the 
amount	of	fuel	onboard	and	subtracting	the	fuel	required	to	reach	the	end	of	the	selected	leg.		
•	 Fuel	 endurance	 remaining	at	end	 of	selected	 leg	(REM	 ENDUR)	 -		This	 value	 is	calculated	 by	taking	 the	time	
of fuel endurance and subtracting the estimated time enroute to the end of the selected leg.   
•	Fuel	 required	 for	trip	 (FUEL	 REQ)	-	 	This	 value	 is	calculated	 by	multiplying	 the	time	 to	go	 by	 the	 fuel	
flow.  
•	 Total	 range	at	entered	 fuel	flow	 (TOTAL	 RANGE)	 -		This	 value	 is	calculated	 by	multiplying	 the	time	 of	fuel 
endurance by the ground speed.  
OTHER STATISTICS
These statistics are calculated based on the system sensor inputs or the manual trip planning inputs.  
•	Density	altitude	(DENSITY	ALT)
•	True airspeed (TRUE AIRSPEED)
The pilot may select automatic (AUTO) or manual (MANUAL) page mode, \
and flight plan (FPL) or waypoint 
(WPTS) mode.  In automatic page mode, only the FPL, LEG, or waypoint I\
Ds are editable (based on FPL/WPTS 
selection).

FLIGHT MANAGEMENT
When the aircraft is in the air and a destination waypoint has been entered, the fuel calculations can be 
completed.
•	 Estimated	landing	weight	=		zero	fuel	weight	+		estimated	landing	fuel	weight.		
•	Estimated	landing	fuel	weight	=		fuel on board weight - (fuel flow x ETE) 
•	Excess	fuel	weight	=		estimated	landing	fuel	weight	-	fuel	reserves	weight
If the aircraft is on the ground or a destination waypoint has not been entered, the following fields display 
invalid values consisting of six dashes:
•	 Estimated	landing	weight
•	Estimated landing fuel weight
•	Excess fuel weight
WEIGHT CAUTION AND WARNING CONDITIONS
If the zero fuel weight is greater than the maximum allowable zero fuel weight, then the zero fuel weight is 
displayed in amber.
If the aircraft weight is greater than the maximum allowable takeoff weight, then the aircraft weight is displayed 
in amber.
If the estimated landing weight is greater than the maximum allowable landing weight, then the estimated 
landing weight is displayed in amber.
If	the	 estimated	 landing	fuel	weight	 is	positive,	 but	less	 than	 or	equal	 to	the	 fuel	 reserves	 weight,	the	following	
values are displayed in amber:
•	 Estimated	fuel	at	landing	weight
•	Excess fuel weight
If the estimated landing fuel weight is zero or negative, then the following values are displayed in red:
•	 Estimated	fuel	at	landing	weight
•	Excess fuel weight

5.10 RAIM PREDICTION
RAIM (Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring) is a GPS receiver function that performs a consistency 
check on all tracked satellites.  RAIM ensures that the available satellite geometry allows the receiver to calculate 
a position within a specified RAIM protection limit (2.0 nm for oceanic, 2.0 nm for enroute, 1.0 nm for terminal, 
and 0.3 nm for non-precision approaches).  During oceanic, enroute, and terminal phases of flight, RAIM is 
available nearly 100% of the time.  The RAIM prediction function also indicates whether RAIM is available at a 
specified date and time.  RAIM computations predict satellite coverage within ±15 min of the specified arrival 
date and time.  Because of the tighter protection limit on approaches, there may be times when RAIM is not 
available.   RAIM prediction must be initiated manually if there is concern over SBAS coverage at the destination 
or some other reason that compromises navigation precision.  If RAIM is not predicted to be available for the 
final approach course, the approach does not become active.  If RAIM is not available when crossing the FAF, the 
missed approach procedure must be flown.

5.11 NAVIGATING A FLIGHT PLAN
The following discussion is an example of navigating a flight plan with the SBAS capable GPS system while the 
G1000 provides vertical guidance through descents.  A lateral flight plan (LNAV) would be navigated in much the 
same way, but would not include vertical guidance when the final approach course is active.
 NOTE:  The following example flight plan is for instructional purposes only.  All database information depicted 
should be considered not current.
The example is a flight plan from KMKC to KCOS filed using the TIFTO2 departure, various Victor Airways,  
and	 the	DBRY1	 arrival	with	the	transition	 at	TBE.		 The	flight	 plan	includes	 an	enroute	 altitude	of	12,000	 feet,	an	
LPV (WAAS) approach selected for runway 35R, and a missed approach executed at the Missed Approach Point 
(MAP).  A few enroute changes are demonstrated.
1) Prior to departure, the TIFTO2 departure, the airways, and the DBRY1 arrival at KCOS are loaded.  See the 
Procedures section for loading departures and arrivals.  Note the magenta arrow in Figure 5-106 indicating the 
active departure leg.
    After takeoff, ATC assigns a heading of 240º.
2) Figure 5-106 shows the aircraft on the assigned heading of 240º.  ‘TERM’ (Terminal) is the current CDI flight 
phase displayed on the HSI indicating 1.0 nm CDI scaling.
