in the flight plan are required, under regulation 91.630 of CASR, to be reported to ATS — the estimated time the aeroplane flew over each waypoint;
 (b) the fuel calculations made in compliance with the fuel requirements under Chapter 7;
 (c) the aerodrome of final landing for the flight.

5.01  Operations to remote islands
 (1) In this section:
  remote island means:
 (a) Christmas Island; or
 (b) the Cocos (Keeling) Islands; or
 (c) Lord Howe Island; or
 (d) Norfolk Island.
 (2) This section prescribes circumstances and requirements for subregulation 135.185(1) of CASR.
 (3) This section applies to an aeroplane that:
 (a) has more than 1 engine; and
 (b) is conducting a passenger transport operation or medical transport operation, which involves flying to a remote island.
 (4) The requirements are the following:
 (a) before the flight commences, the pilot in command of the aeroplane must nominate a destination alternate aerodrome for the flight;
 (b) the nominated destination alternate aerodrome, for the flight, must not be located on a remote island.
 (5) However, the requirement stated in paragraph (4)(b) does not apply if the aeroplane's operator holds an approval, under regulation 135.020 of CASR, for the nominated destination alternate aerodrome, for the flight, to be located on a remote island.

7.02  Definitions for Chapter 7
  In this Chapter:
additional fuel means the supplementary amount of fuel required to allow an aeroplane that suffers engine failure or loss of pressurisation at the critical point along the route (whichever results in the greater subsequent fuel consumption) to:
 (a) proceed to an alternate aerodrome for the flight of the aeroplane; and
 (b) fly for 15 minutes at the holding speed, for the aeroplane, at 1 500 ft above the aerodrome elevation in ISA conditions; and
 (c) make an approach and landing.
contingency fuel, for an aeroplane and flight, means the amount of fuel required to compensate for unforeseen factors, which must not be less than the greater of the following amounts:
 (a) if:
 (i) the aeroplane is a piston-engine aeroplane — 10% of the trip fuel amount for the flight; or
 (ii) the aeroplane is a turbine-engine aeroplane — 5% of the trip fuel amount for the flight;
 (b) an amount of fuel required to fly, in ISA conditions, for 5 minutes at the holding speed, for the aeroplane, at 1 500 ft above the planned destination aerodrome.
destination alternate fuel means the amount of fuel required to enable an aeroplane to do the following in a sequence:
 (a) perform a missed approach at
