Which combination of fuels constitutes the dispatched fuel plan as described?

• A. Destination fuel only
• B. Destination fuel plus alternate fuel
• C. Destination fuel plus most distant alternate fuel plus 45 minutes
• D. All of the above

Answer: (C)

Dispatched fuel planning requires including fuel for reaching the destination, a safe alternate, and a reserve margin. The plan must cover fuel to fly to the destination, fuel to reach the most distant acceptable alternate airport, and an additional 45 minutes of reserve for unexpected delays or holding. The 45-minute increment provides a safety cushion beyond the flight and diversion requirements. Therefore, the dispatched plan comprises destination fuel plus the most distant alternate fuel plus 45 minutes of reserve. The other options are incomplete because they omit either the reserve or the alternate component, or they mix in options that don’t align with the standard dispatched fuel structure.
