Hi,
In the performance e-text, page 100, we are given an example for calculating Trip fuel - I believe there's an error in the calculated answer; see the bold text for correction
in gallons: (180-15-4)/1.1 = 140 gal (this answer should be 147 gal)
in kg: (490 - 41 - 8)/1.1 = 383kg (this answer should be 401kg)

G'day SJM
Thanks for the feedback you are correct I don't know how I came up with those numbers, I must have changed the 15% back to 10% but did not modify the answer.
