Missions · Someone else wants to come. Can the flight still go?

The Extra Passenger

  • You planned a trip with Casey (pilot, 170 lb), Drew (160 lb) and Quinn (140 lb), with 30 gal for the direct flight including reserve.
  • At the airport, Morgan (180 lb) asks to come along.
  • Option: plan a fuel stop halfway, which cuts the fuel needed on board to 16 gal.
