upbending and increase the center wingbox service life. The following exceptions apply
to taking off with less than full main tanks:
14.4.1.1.1. Secondary fuel management with fuel in the AUX tanks for heavy-weight
assault training.
14.4.1.1.2. Secondary fuel management with fuel in the AUX tanks for 'elevator lifts'
out of an assault LZ.
14.4.1.1.3. A mission necessity based on a real-world operation.
14.4.2. Depressurization Fuel. Additional fuel required for pressure loss when carrying
passengers and oxygen is not available or sufficient oxygen is not available for the crew to
fly unpressurized at the planned altitude.
14.4.2.1. Crews are to calculate the fuel required to reach a recovery airfield in the event
of depressurization at the ETP. Additional fuel for pressure loss at ETP is used when
pressurized, carrying passengers, and aircraft oxygen is not available to the passengers.
Compute at 1,000 lbs/hr for time from ETP to a suitable airfield. Plan to be overhead at
the recovery location with 0+30 minutes reserve fuel.
14.4.2.2. Prior to flight, crews must compare the calculated depressurization fuel with
the RRFL to determine if additional fuel is required. See Table 14.1.
14.4.2.3. Depressurization fuel will be calculated in ACFP at 10,000‘ altitude. If
additional fuel is required from the ETP, then ACFP automatically adds the additional
fuel into block 10.
14.5. Fuel Planning. Navigators are allowed to fuel plan by either using the appropriate TO
1C-130xx-1-1 method or electronically by using CFPS. In addition, ACFP fuel plans provided
by 618 AOC (TACC) are authorized for determining required fuel loads.
14.5.1. TO 1C-130xx-1-1 Fuel Planning.
14.5.1.1. There are three distinct phases of flight for which required fuel quantities and
or fuel flows must be calculated. These three phases are: initial climb out, start cruise and
end cruise.
14.5.1.2. When computing fuel using TO 1C-130xx-1-1, use the appropriate drag index.
Standardized drag indexes may be established by local OGVs and published in local
supplements. Use 95 percent engine charts and Section II of the AF Forms 4116 for
computations.
14.5.1.3. Use the appropriate TO 1C-130xx-1-1 Part 4 Figures to extract Time to Climb
(TTC), Distance to Climb (DTC), and Fuel to Climb (FTC). Apply the correct
temperature deviation and correct for pressure altitude to compute all climb data.
14.5.1.4. Using TTC and DTC, calculate climb TAS.
14.5.1.5. Climb Fuel. In the climb section of the enroute fuel computation worksheet
enter takeoff gross weight (TOGW), total flight time, and FTC in the appropriate blocks.
14.5.1.6. Start Cruise.
