-"Integrated range" curves or tables are presented in the Aeroplane Operations Manuals. Their purpose is: to determine the fuel consumption for a certain still air distance considering the decreasing fuel flow with decreasing mass.

-A "current flight plan" is a: filed flight plan with amendments and clearance included.

-A descent is planned at .74/250KIAS from 35000ft to 5000ft. How much fuel will be consumed during this descent? 150kg

-A descent is planned from 7500 ft AMSL so as to arrive at 1000 ft AMSL 6 NM from a VORTAC. With a GS of 156 kts and a rate of descent of 800 ft/min. The distance from the VORTAC when descent is started is:   27,1 NM
