This program will allow you to group one to six different ETP calculation scenarios together as a single policy, which can then be assigned to an individual aircraft. The ETP calculation routine within the flight plan program is capable of calculating the fuel requirements according to six different scenarios for each pair of ETP alternates. This program allows control over which scenarios are to be used for any given aircraft. When the program is called, the screen will display an empty record, and a command line listing the various modes that may be selected.
