26
Engine fuel leak during engine start
If, during engine start, the ground crew reports a fuel leak from an
engine drain, continue to run the engine at idle for up to 5 minutes.
If the fuel leak stops during this time, no maintenance action is
needed. If the fuel leak continues after 5 minutes, shut down the
engine for maintenance action
27
Circuit breaker reset
• In flight, reset of is not recommended unless directed by a non-normal checklist. However, a tripped circuit breaker may be reset once, after a short cooling period (approximately 2 minutes), if in the judgment of the captain, the situation resulting from the circuit breaker trip has a significant adverse effect on safety. On the
ground, flight crew reset of a tripped circuit breaker should only be done
after maintenance has determined that it is safe to reset the circuit
breaker.
• Flight crew cycling (pulling and resetting) of a circuit breaker to clear a non-normal condition is not recommended, unless directed by a non-normal checklist.
28

* 4,000 feet below optimum: 3% to 5% increase in trip fuel
* 8,000 feet below optimum: 8% to 14% increase in trip fuel
* cruise speed 0.01M above LRC: 1% to 2% increase in trip fuel.
30
Meaning of declaring "Minimum fuel"
informs ATC that all planned airport options have been reduced to a specific airport of intended landing and any change to the existing clearance may result in landing with less than planned final reserve fuel.
This is not an emergency situation but an indication that an emergency situation is possible should any additional delay occur.
